Donald Trump’s administration is expected to implement stricter immigration policies. There is significant concern in Haitian-American communities regarding potential rollbacks of programs like TPS and Humanitarian Parole. Previous Trump-era policies included terminating TPS for certain groups and enforcing stricter deportation measures.
Advocacy groups are mobilizing to protect existing immigration protections, emphasizing Haiti’s contributions to the U.S. and the humanitarian crises driving migration.
Remember that Trump had expanded TPS at the end of his last term to get the Haitian vote. Since a large group of Haitians voted to help him win the last election, let’s stay hopeful.
