A federal judge issued a last minute reprieve on Feb. 2, blocking President Donald Trump's attempt to end temporary protected status for hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants in the U.S.
The status, which allows about 350,000 Haitians to legally live and work in the United States, had been set to expire on Feb. 3. It includes about 30,000 Haitians in central Ohio and another 15,000 in Springfield.
U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Columbia Ana Reyes issued a ruling postponing the effective date of the Trump Administration's cancellation of TPS for Haitians. The extension is a result of a case filed in July in that court.
The TPS status for Haitian immigrants previously was extended by a federal court from a Sept. 3, 2025, expiration date to Feb. 3. The status can be granted to immigrants from countries where there is ongoing armed conflict, environmental disaster, epidemics or other extraordinary and temporary conditions.
