About this case
A federal class-action lawsuit filed in March 2026 challenges the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s termination of Somalia’s temporary protected status designation, alleging that the decision was unlawful and discriminatory and seeking continued protections for affected Somali nationals. A federal district court initially stayed the termination, but lifted the stay on August 14; the plaintiffs filed an appeal, and the litigation remains ongoing.
