The Trump administration is revoking the Temporary Protected Status of roughly 2,500 Somali immigrants, who are now set to lose their legal status and work permits on March 17.

The move comes months after Mr. Trump called Somali immigrants living in the United States “garbage” said he wanted them to leave. His administration have cited a massive fraud scandal implicating members of the Somali community to deploy thousands of federal immigration agents to Minneapolis area. 

Days after 2,000 federal agents descended in Minnesota, ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot Renee Good, a U.S. citizen who was behind the wheel of her car. While Mr. Trump, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and other federal officials have tried to paint Good as an aggressor who was attempting to harm the agent, expert analysis of the video evidence has discredited that narrative. 

On Monday, the state of Minnesota, along with the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, announced a lawsuit against Noem and other federal officials in an effort to stop the surge of ICE agents from coming to Minnesota.

The suit maintains that the surge is a violation of the 10th Amendment, which states that “the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
