Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL-25) in introducing legislation to protect Temporary Protected Statuses (TPS) and fight President Trump\u2019s continued attacks on our nation\u2019s immigrants.\n\nThe Temporary Protected Status Review Act would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to follow a clear, evidence-based process before terminating TPS and allow Congress to reverse TPS terminations under the Congressional Review Act.\n\nRep. Craig\u2019s bill comes after last month\u2019s Supreme Court decision in Mullin v. Doe, which ruled that the Administration\u2019s termination of TPS for Haitians and Syrians cannot be reviewed by the courts. As a result, 1.3 million TPS recipients who fled violence, natural disasters or brutal political repression are at risk of losing their legal status and work authorization and could potentially face detention, family separation or deportation back to their home countries.\n\n\u201cThe Trump Administration has repeatedly targeted TPS and used those who have come to our country to flee some of the most horrific situations as political pawns,\u201d said Rep. Craig. \u201cReversing TPS actively endangers the lives of TPS holders forced to return to the violence they fled. I\u2019m proud help introduce this critical legislation to protect Minnesota\u2019s TPS holders, take back control from this out-of-control president and combat his administration\u2019s continued attacks on our immigrant neighbors.\u201d\n\nRep. Craig has repeatedly spoken out against President Trump's attacks on TPS, especially on behalf of Minnesota\u2019s Somali community, for whom TPS was cancelled earlier this year.\n\nIn April, Rep. Craig and her Democratic colleagues successfully forced a vote on legislation requiring the Trump Administration to reinstate TPS for Haitians. Earlier this year, she joined a group of 26 Senators and 157 House Members in filing an amicus brief challenging the Trump Administration\u2019s illegal termination of TPS protections for Haiti and Syria in Trump v. Miot. Ultimately, the Supreme Court\u2019s conservative-majority ruled TPS terminations could proceed lawfully.\n\nRep. Craig is also an original cosponsor and longtime supporter of the American Dream and Promise Act, which would protect TPS holders and provide them with a path to lawful permanent residence.\n\n###", 1, "2026-07-28T07:37:32Z", "2026-07-28T07:38:50Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://craig.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-angie-craig-helps-introduce-legislation-protect-tps-fight-trumps-attacks"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6670799814164639, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
