A federal appeals court allowed President Trump on Monday to move forward with ending deportation protections for more than 60,000 migrants from Nepal, Honduras and Nicaragua, a victory for his administration’s push to curtail a program for migrants fleeing crisis at home.

Kristi Noem, the secretary of homeland security, has moved to end the Temporary Protected Status program for hundreds of thousands of migrants fleeing instability and war in their home countries.

The Ninth Circuit panel wrote in an unsigned ruling that there was significant evidence supporting the Trump administration’s position — reasoning that Ms. Noem’s decision to terminate the programs may not be subject to judicial review, and that “the government can likely show that the administrative record adequately supports the secretary’s action.”

Some 50,000 Hondurans, 7,000 Nepalis and 3,000 Nicaraguans are covered under Temporary Protected Status, according to the Congressional Research Service. The decades-old program allows people from countries facing armed conflict, natural disasters and other catastrophes to temporarily live and work in the United States. Its protections for migrants from some countries have been renewed for years as turmoil in their nations continues.
