MIAMI - Haitian leaders are urging President Joe Biden to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians through 2028. The program is currently set to expire in February 2026 and immigrant communities are concerned that, starting next week, families could face forced separation and deportation.
When Joe Biden, in one of his final acts as president, approved a sweeping extension of “Temporary Protected Status” to 600,000 Venezuelans, most Americans could not know that his official justification was based almost entirely on a lie.
One of Joe Biden’s final acts on immigration was to extend four grants of Temporary Protected Status – covering nearly one million immigrants from Venezuela, El Salvador, Ukraine, and Sudan – through to 2026.
Gangs in Haiti killed at least 5,600 people last year, according to a new United Nations report. The report from the Office of the United Nations Commissioner for Human Rights said an additional 3,700 were injured or abducted, leading some to criticize the Biden administration for not doing enough.
The U.N. migration agency says internal displacement in Haiti, largely caused by gang violence, has tripled over the last year and now surpasses 1 million people — a record in the Caribbean nation.
Under the Biden administration, migrants from embattled countries could apply for entry for humanitarian reasons, without having to attempt to cross into the U.S. illegally.
Mobilized 'cutters, aircraft, boats and deployable specialized forces' are headed to protect the state from unwanted interlopers.
