The Trump administration’s decision Sunday to end the protection from deportation for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans living in the United States is based on the notion that conditions have improved in the South American country to the point that its citizens no longer need to be safeguarded from a repressive dictatorship.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is ending protections that shielded roughly 350,000 Venezuelans from deportation, leaving them with two months before they lose their right to work in the U.S.

Trump's order revoking TPS status for almost 350,000 Venezuelans in 60 days would be 'suicidal' for some if they're sent back; others would be jailed, an activist said.
