The Guardian reports on Haitians seeking immediate protection from deportation due to the circumstances in their country, specifically the deadly earthquake that occurred in 2021 and ongoing gang violence. The temporary protected status has been extended several times, but it has expired for Haitians in recent months. The New York Times highlights the 10,000 undocumented Haitians who are afraid to leave their homes and have seen their options for an extend-Temporary Protected Status decline during the Biden administration. The article also discusses legal efforts and advocates seeking to reverse the termination of the designation. Meanwhile, conservative groups and immigration opponents question the legitimacy of Temporary Protected Status for Haitians, with some threatening legal action followed by deportations.
