New York City is terminating the employment of Haitian city workers who have lost Temporary Protected Status, after a Supreme Court ruling cleared the way for President Trump to end humanitarian protections for Haitian immigrants, Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced on Friday.
City officials said at least dozens of city workers were affected, but that number could rise to the hundreds. Under the Temporary Protected Status program, more than 350,000 people from Haiti and Syria were allowed to live and work across the United States while their home countries faced humanitarian disasters. President Trump has been working to end the program, as part of his administration’s sweeping crackdown on immigrant communities.
The work permits of Haitians with Temporary Protected Status expired on July 24, and the mayor said the city had little choice but to comply with federal law. “The City of New York was forced by federal law, as recently decided by the Supreme Court, to review the work authorization of Haitian T.P.S. holders,” he said in a statement.
Mr. Mamdani has tended to avoid directly antagonizing Mr. Trump, with whom he has had a surprisingly warm relationship. But after announcing the cuts, he took aim at Mr. Trump.

1st thing is, be careful of the source.
Anything coming out of that outlet needs triple verification IMO.
BUT WHO WILL PICK THE CROPS?
How many young Muslim men will replace the Hatians?
NYC is terminating Haitian city govt workers numbering dozens that could rise to hundreds losing Temporary Protected Status, after a USSC ruling cleared the way for President Trump to end immigrant protections.
Under the “Temporary Protected Status program,” more than 350,000
Haitians and Syrians were allowed to live and work across the US.
Remember that Haitian gang member who famously said he was ‘not going back to Haiti!’. He is STILL here!
For 18 months, 16 YEARS ago. Temporary means different things to different people.
“Only President Trump has the power to restore T.P.S.,” Mr. Mamdani said. “The president should exercise his authority to benefit all New Yorkers and protect our economy.”
That’s not how this works, Mr. Mayor.
He really ought to familiarize himself with American laws and the constitution. Not a requirement for New York City voters, I understand, but this statement is beyond ignorant
Doing the jobs that Americans won’t do.
Democrats are always upset to lose their slaves.
The Haitians like it and want to stay? The Democrat planation owners said exactly the same thing. You can look it up.
Slaves and voters
This is a win for Mamdani. He can blame Trump for the firings and then replace them with loyalists.
“This is a win for Mamdani. He can blame Trump for the firings and then replace them with loyalists.”
Finally!!!! Someone gets the point and the reason I posted this. Mandami would be raising hell if he didn’t want to go along. He sees this as an opportunity to replace Hatians with Muslims loyalists.
Given temporary status for 18 months....16 YEARS ago.
Temporary means different things to different people.
Oh, THEY knew what they were doing, alright........
......just can be bothered to tell taxpayers.
Good. Hire Americans to replace them.
Allison Burroughs: Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge in Boston, blocked the Somalia TPS termination on August 1, 2026
Brian Murphy: Biden-appointed judge, indefinitely extended a block on ending TPS for Ethiopians, a status that had expired in February 2026.
Does this mean an American citizen can get the job?
