As previously reported, U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer asked the Supreme Court last week to stop a ruling from a lower court that blocked the government from ending the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians while cases challenging its cancellation continue.
The TPS for Haitians was set to expire last month, but has been extended due to challenges to its cancellation.
There are more than 350,000 Haitian nationals currently living in the United States.
In addition to taking up the legal battle over the TPS for Haiti, the Supreme Court also agreed to hear arguments over the TPS for Syria.
