New DHS secretary Kristi Noem ends extension that allows people to stay if they cannot return safely to home country

The Trump administration has revoked an extension of deportation protections that the previous Biden administration granted to more than 600,000 Venezuelans already in the United States.

The homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, on Tuesday rescinded an 18-month extension of the temporary protected status (TPS) program, which allows for people to temporarily stay in the US if they cannot return safely to their home country.
