SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal appeals court on Friday ruled against President Donald Trump's plans to end temporary protections for 600,000 Venezuelans who have permission to live and work in the U.S., meaning that migrants whose protections have expired or are about to expire might be allowed to stay.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously upheld a lower court ruling that maintained temporary protected status designations for Venezuelans while they challenge actions by Trump’s administration in court.
