ARThe Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Honduran nationals in the United States has been officially terminated, effective September 8, 2025, after a series of court battles.

Although a federal district court initially blocked the termination in December 2025, this was later suspended by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, allowing the government to proceed with ending the program.
