| Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 340,000 Haitian TPS holders expires on Feb. 3rd. It has already been terminated for refugees from Venezuela and Somalia. It is in danger of being terminated for refugees from Myanmar’s repressive military regime, where human rights abuses, sexual violence and conflict-driven displacement are widespread. TPS is supposed to protect people from returning to unsafe conditions in their home countries. Kristi Noem criminally lied when she designated it was safe for Haitians to return to their country even though since the 2004 US-orchestrated coup against the democratic government of President Aristide, Haiti has been completely destabilized under US/UN occupation. In today’s Haiti, paramilitary death squads armed with weapons from the US control large parts of the country, burning, raping and terrorizing the population. Over half the population – 5.7 million Haitians – are facing acute food insecurity; 1.4 million are internally displaced due to violence. This is the situation Donald Trump and Kristi Noem want to force hundreds of thousands of Haitians to return to. Ending TPS for refugees from Haiti, Myanmar and others is just as deadly as ICE raids across the US. Lives are on the line! Unless the motion for a stay is granted on Feb. 2nd, Haitian TPS holders will immediately lose their work permits and be subject to deadly ICE raids, detention and deportation. Take Action Now! URGENT ACTION ALERT! THEY ARE COMING FOR HAITIANS! Call the Congressional switchboard, (202) 224-3121. Say your zip code and ask to be connected to your Representative.
