June 26, 2026 - WASHINGTON, DC – On Thursday, U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) released a statement following the Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision allowing the Trump Administration to essentially terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians and Syrians. The ruling clears a path for the potential deportation of hundreds of thousands of immigrants and will likely have implications for TPS holders from around a dozen other countries, including Venezuela and Ethiopia.

“Today’s Supreme Court decision allowing the Trump Administration to strip away protections from immigrants who hold legal status is shameful and will have serious consequences for our communities and economy,” said Senator Rosen. “This ruling will put hundreds of thousands of people – many of whom are employed in industries already experiencing labor shortages – at risk of losing their ability to work or even being deported. Businesses will suffer and many parents will lose the ability to care for their U.S. citizen children as Trump continues to pursue his cruel and inhumane mass deportation agenda. Congress can and must act to enact protections for immigrants who are seeking safety in this country.”

Senator Rosen has fought to protect immigrant communities in Nevada. She recently joined Senate colleagues in pushing back on a decision by the Trump Administration that will weaken legal protections for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients. In April, Senator Rosen forced a vote on her legislation to reverse a Trump regulation ending automatic extension of work permits, and her effort gained bipartisan support despite ultimately being blocked by Senate Republicans. Last year, she helped introduce a bill to ensure the Department of Homeland Security allows immigrants who have been detained as part of immigration enforcement to contact their legal counsel and families.
