How many people are covered by temporary protected status?

The Hill reports that the Supreme Court ruled Thursday that the Trump administration can terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haiti and Syria, potentially exposing more than a million people to deportation. The article is bylined to Sarah Davis at a major national outlet with established editorial standards, though the provided excerpt lacks specific details about the court's legal reasoning or the number of individuals directly affected by the ruling on these two countries specifically—independent sources (NPR, NYT, NBC) clarify that the ruling affects approximately 1.3 million TPS holders across more than a dozen countries, not solely Haiti and Syria. Justice Samuel Alito's majority opinion determined the president has unreviewable authority to end TPS protections under the statute, a significant legal point that the Hill excerpt doesn't elaborate on. Watch for implementation details from the Trump administration regarding timelines for termination and any congressional response, as well as potential legal challenges on other grounds.
