Please call and email your Senators and urge them to renew TPS status for Haiti and support S.4814— legislation that would require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and ensure that Haitian TPS holders are not forced to return to dangerous and unstable conditions.
The companion bill, H.R. 1689, which authorizes a 3-year renewal of TPS, passed the U.S. House by bipartisan vote in mid-April.
On June 25, the Supreme Court ruled that the administration can terminate TPS for 350,000+ people from Haiti and 6,100+ from Syria. The ruling clears a path for the potential deportation of hundreds of thousands of more people, many of whom have lived in the U.S. for decades. This decision is likely to have implications for TPS holders from about a dozen other countries as well. The Supreme Court decision goes back to the District Court, providing a short reprieve so Haitians can prepare for deportation, tending to children, houses, businesses, cars, finances.

On July 1, the Haitian Bridge Alliance and the Congressional Black Caucus, held an emergency town hall meeting and now urges phone calls to Senators to protect nearly half a million Haitians working in the United States today. You can open FAN's call instructions here.
