Attempt to halt imminent deportations of Haitians and Syrians blocked in US Senate
A U.S. Senate bill (S. 2106) aimed at creating a legal pathway for immigrants with Temporary Protected Status was blocked by Republican Senator Eric Schmitt after Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen sought unanimous consent to advance it. The bill responds to a Supreme Court decision enabling the Trump administration to continue terminating TPS protections for Haitians and Syrians, risking their deportation to countries with ongoing violence and instability.
