US EditionUS ends temporary legal status for Ethiopians
The Department of Homeland Security ended deportation protection and work permits for 4,500 Ethiopians after determining Ethiopia no longer meets Temporary Protected Status conditions.
- On Friday, the Department of Homeland Security announced it rescinded Temporary Protected Status for Ethiopian nationals, with roughly 4,500 beneficiaries losing work authorization and facing departure by mid-February.
- After reviewing country conditions and consulting U.S. Government agencies, the DHS Secretary concluded Ethiopia no longer met TPS criteria following the mid-2024 renewal set to expire on Friday.
- Ethiopia was first granted TPS in December 2022 amid severe drought and armed conflict, and Congress created TPS in 1990 to allow eligible nationals two-year protection with work authorization.
- The move follows a recent pattern of TPS terminations, with the Trump administration revoking protections for multiple countries after Burma's November revocation and criticizing prior renewals.
- TPS is reviewed every 18 months by the DHS secretary, and Ethiopia's designation is set to expire on December 12, 2025, establishing the statutory renewal timeline.
