Trump administration silence has 200,000 Salvadoran immigrants hoping they're protected
About 200,000 Salvadoran immigrants in the U.S. have temporary legal protection from deportation that requires periodic renewal. A deadline for the Trump administration to decide on their status passed without public announcement, prompting uncertainty about whether their protections would continue. The administration then extended their humanitarian protections indefinitely, though it remains unclear what this means for their long-term legal standing.
