The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced Monday that it would rescind protections from deportation for Nicaragua and Honduras.
The move ends temporary protected status (TPS) for citizens of those countries living in the U.S., which were both established after the same deadly hurricane and in place for more than 25 years.
The move will end protections from deportation for more than 52,000 Hondurans and nearly 3,000 Nicaraguans who have been in the U.S. since the late 1990s.
The protections are offered to those who are in the U.S. but cannot be safely returned home due to a natural disaster or civil unrest.
In announcing the move, the Trump administration called Honduras “a wonderful partner.”
“Temporary Protected Status was designed to be just that—temporary,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said. “It is clear that the Government of Honduras has taken all of the necessary steps to overcome the impacts of Hurricane Mitch, almost 27 years ago. Honduran citizens can safely return home, and DHS is here to help facilitate their voluntary return.”
The statement on Nicaragua did not reference the authoritarian government of the country.
“The impacts of a natural disaster impacting Nicaragua in 1999 no longer exist. The environmental situation has improved enough that it is safe enough for Nicaraguan citizens to return home. This decision restores integrity in our immigration system and ensures that TPS remains temporary,” DHS said in its statement.

Anyone here illegally should be subject to deportation.
“From the Rio Grande River to the Sea”. America is not a Refugee Theme Park. Go the hell home and fight for your own country. Stop being a yellow-bellied roadrunner. Show some guts when you’re waving your flag, dropping your gringo massa’s “F” bombs and throwing Molotovs at cops and their cars.
Those Hondurans and Nicaraguans could have much more easily “fled” to Coast Rica, Guatemala or Mexico.
Why are they allowed to country shop where to go?
We know the answer. Generous welfare benefits in the USA given to illegal alien leaches (i.e. democrat voters).
unless, of course, they claim to be a farm worker or a hotel worker———
Now Git!
The cheap labor rinos and democrats came up with at least a dozen different methods for rationalizing the breaking of our immigration laws.
Temporary=25 years in what world?
Get them out.
Comprehensive Immigration Reform 12.0.
Look at all this bad-hombre theater over here—and don’t notice the AMNESTY over there!
The uniparty always wins.
Hallelujah.
Thank you, Pres. Trump.
