Protect TPS Families Before Trump Deports Them

Yesterday, the Supreme Court handed Trump a deadly weapon against refugees. Now, the families of more than 350,000 Haitian and Syrian immigrants are now in danger.

Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, allows people to live and work legally in the United States when disaster, violence, or other dangerous conditions make it unsafe to return home. The Court allowed the Trump administration to end those protections for Haitian and Syrian immigrants who followed the rules and built their lives here.

These are parents, workers, neighbors, students, caregivers, and community members. For many of them, deportation could be a death sentence.

That is why protecting TPS is so critical: erasing it would expose families to violence, instability, lack of lifesaving medical care, and humanitarian disaster.

TPS holders have built lives here. They pay taxes. They raise families. They care for our loved ones, power local economies, and strengthen our communities. Many are parents of U.S. citizen children who could see their families ripped apart by Trump’s mass deportation agenda.

The Supreme Court has made it clear that it will not save TPS families. That means Congress must.

Lawmakers must pass emergency protections, block funding for mass deportations, and create a path to permanent status for people who have already made this country their home. But they need to feel public pressure immediately.

Thanks for all that you do,
