A Federal court could rule that the Trump administration acted within its power to end Temporary Protected Status for immigrants from some nations, according to THE CITY.

After several courts across the country granted preliminary injunctions last week, blocking the public charge rule from taking effect, THE CITY takes a look at what follows for immigrant communities.

Today’s order issuing a preliminary injunction—the first to be granted nationwide on this issue—blocks the regulation and related application forms from taking effect until a final decision is reached in the litigation.

Attorneys from The Legal Aid Society, the Center for Constitutional Rights, and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP argued that this dramatic change should be halted until the lawfulness of the proposed rule is determined. 

Cameron, Supervising Attorney in our Civil Law Reform Unit, spoke with NY1’s Inside City Hall and NY1 Noticias about the importance of the recently filed lawsuit.
