NYC Mayor Mamdani vows to defy Supreme Court ruling allowing Trump to deport Haitian, Syrian migrants

NYC Mayor Mamdani vows to defy Supreme Court ruling allowing Trump to deport Haitian, Syrian migrants New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has vowed to continue supporting Haitian and Syrian migrants after the US Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to end deportation protections for the two groups, calling the decision "cruel" and one of the largest attacks on immigrants in modern American history. The Supreme Court voted 6-3 on Thursday to allow the administration of Donald Trump to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for migrants from Haiti and Syria, exposing hundreds of thousands of people to possible deportation. Reacting to the ruling, Mamdani said New York City would continue to stand with immigrant communities. "To have people who frankly taught the world about freedom have their own freedom put into jeopardy by the actions of a Supreme Court and federal administration — it is not only cruel, it's not something we will ever accept." "The Supreme Court just sparked one of the largest attacks on immigrants in modern American history. In one fell swoop, thousands of Haitians and Syrians now risk losing the right to live and work in the country they call home." Mamdani said the ruling would have a significant impact on New York City's immigrant population, particularly Haitian and Syrian residents. "This decision will cause enormous pain across the five boroughs. Here in New York, it falls hardest on our Haitian community, one of the largest in the country, alongside Syrian families." He sought to reassure migrants affected by the ruling. "To the tens of thousands of New Yorkers with TPS who are watching the news, frightened about what comes next, hear me clearly: New York City is your home.
