Trump ending temporary protection status, for Somalia in March: Noem
The Trump administration is ending temporary protection status, known as TPS, for Somalia, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told ABC News Tuesday in a statement.

Somali migrants with TPS will be required to leave the country by March 17, according to USCIS.
"Temporary means temporary," Noem said. "Country conditions in Somalia have improved to the point that it no longer meets the law's requirement for Temporary Protected Status. Further, allowing Somali nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is contrary to our national interests. We are putting Americans first."
Minneapolis is the home to the largest Somali American population in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census.
