This decision brings relief to Haitian TPS holders—but it’s only temporary. Ending TPS for Haiti would be catastrophic for them and their families. No child should fear losing their parents to deportation. Redesignate and Extend TPS for Haiti NOW.

Photo of child walking alone in front of orange wall. Overlay text reads, "CGRS Decries Termination of Legal Services for Unaccompanied Immigrant Kids"

Quote from CGRS Director of Training and Technical Assistance Christine Lin reads, "CGRS has consulted on thousands of cases involving children who have survived unimaginable trauma in their home countries, only to be thrust into a complex and adversarial immigration system that forces them to plead their case alone, as a government lawyer fights for their deportation. The Unaccompanied Children Program has provided a lifeline to these children, ensuring that their rights are respected and that they are protected from abuse and exploitation as they navigate the legal process. Abandoning them while fast-tracking their deportation cases will lead to mass due process violations and wrongful denials of protection. In cases with life-or-death stakes, this will mean children being unlawfully deported to countries where they face grave harm."
