Washington, D.C. — The following is a quote from Jennie Murray, President and CEO of the Forum, regarding the Supreme Court’s decision on Temporary Protected Status for Haiti:
“Today’s decision underlines the need for long-term immigration solutions. Congress should step in and work for immigration pathways for many of the long-term U.S. residents who have been here under TPS—working and contributing to American communities for years.
“The imminent termination of TPS for Haiti will disrupt the lives of thousands of beneficiaries, harm the communities that have integrated them, and remove essential workers from different sectors of the American economy that rely on their work. Congress should consider that Americans show broad support across party and ideology for fair, firm and compassionate immigration solutions.”
