Following a Supreme Court ruling, Disney placed nearly 45 Venezuelan workers with temporary protected status (TPS) on leave to ensure legal compliance. The workers will retain benefits, and their union contract allows reinstatement upon providing proper work authorization. The decision, prompted by the court's halting of a lower court ruling preserving TPS for Venezuelans, affects potentially 350,000 individuals nationwide and has caused distress among affected employees and unions. Disney's action, while criticized, is seen as necessary to avoid potential legal repercussions.
