The Trump administration has moved to end “temporary protected status” (TPS) for around 14,600 Afghans and 7,900 Cameroonians living in the United States. TPS is a program that offers temporary protection from deportation to people in the US for whom it is unsafe to return to their home country. The Trump administration cites improved conditions in Afghanistan and Cameroon to justify its decision. However, critics argue that ongoing conflict in Cameroon and the Taliban’s oppressive rule in Afghanistan make it unsafe for these individuals to return. The move follows Trump’s broader efforts to curtail immigration protections, including his unsuccessful attempt to end TPS for other nationalities during his first term.
