A federal judge in California on Thursday extended temporary protected status for 60,000 people from Central America and Asia, including people from Nepal, Honduras and Nicaragua.

In blocking the end of deportation protections for more than 60,000 migrants, the judge said the Trump administration’s language surrounding the program had strayed into racist conspiracy theories.

A California federal judge on Thursday delayed the end dates of temporary protected status designations previously reserved for an estimated 61,000 people from Honduras, Nicaragua, and Nepal until the Department of Homeland Security revoked those deportation protections.
