Maria Eugenia Torres Ramirez , 37 , fled Venezuela with her two young children after federal police fired shots outside her restaurant.

With her asylum case pending, she obtained Temporary Protected Status , or TPS, which allows people facing extraordinary conditions in their homelands to reside in the U.S. That was until the Trump administration moved to end TPS for many Venezuelans .

The Biden administration oversaw an unprecedented expansion of temporary immigration protections.

Trump 's orders also affect 76,000 Afghans who were evacuated after the fall of Kabul in 2021 .

Last fiscal year , the U.S. resettled more than 100,000 refugees — the highest number in three decades .

Immigration advocates say ending TPS and other legal avenues toward residency could have an unintended effect on that number.
