The Trump Administration is revoking temporary protected status for over 60,000 Venezuelan migrants, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Wednesday morning. The newly confirmed DHS secretary slammed her predecessor Alejandro Mayorkas for tying the Trump Administration’s hands and signing an order giving Venezuelan migrants temporary protected status so they could “stay here and violate the laws” for another 18 months.

Noem would oversee U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Citizenship and Immigration Services.
