Hundreds of thousands of Haitians in the US face an uncertain future after the Trump administration ended protections tied to Temporary Protected Status (TPS), raising fears of deportation and family separation.
A Supreme Court ruling has left the future of hundreds of thousands of Haitians in the United States uncertain. The decision allows the Trump administration to move forward with ending Temporary Protected Status, a program that has allowedHaitians to live and work legally in the US since the 2010 earthquake. Business owners fear losing long-time employees, while many TPS holders worry about deportation, detention and returning to a country they say remains unsafe.
