Kristi Noam announced end of TPS for Yemenis, saying protections were against US ‘national interest’
The Trump administration has ended temporary protected status (TPS) for Yemeni nationals in the US, the secretary of homeland security, Kristi Noem, said on Friday, the latest move targeting immigrants.
The decision to end humanitarian protections that grant deportation relief and work permits to more than a thousand Yemenis in the US was taken after determining that it was against the US “national interest”, Noem said.
