(12.19.25) – The Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC) raises serious concerns regarding the decision by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Ethiopian nationals. This decision carries significant implications, particularly in light of the apparent inconsistency between DHS’s stated justification and the U.S. government’s own assessments of conditions in Ethiopia.
