Pressley Urges Extension of El Salvador TPS to Save Lives | 2026-09-09 | 2026 | 2026-09 | Democrat | House | MA | Ayanna Pressley | P000617 | pressley.house.gov | pressley | https://pressley.house.gov/news/ | scraper | “The termination of Temporary Protected Status for El Salvador would devastate communities, hurt our local and state economies, and spread fear to the nearly 170,00 Salvadoran TPS holders who call this country home. “I’m proud to represent such a rich, vibrant Salvadoran diaspora community in the Massachusetts 7th. Salvadoran TPS holders are our neighbors. They have been here for decades. Their contributions are felt daily across our district, and they deserve to remain here with their families. “Unless the Trump Administration reverses course, our neighbors will be at risk of being uprooted from their community despite having done nothing wrong. Their children, many of whom are U.S. citizens, could be displaced to a country they’ve never set foot in. As ICE continues to terrorize our neighborhoods, the termination of TPS would only destabilize our communities and leave entire families at risk of harm, trauma, and separation. We cannot allow that to happen. “To the Salvadoran TPS holders that call the Massachusetts 7th home: your humanity, dignity, and lives matter. You deserve to work, to contribute, to take care of your families, and to thrive in the country you call home. Please know that my office is here to help and that this Congresswoman has your back. The Trump Administration must extend TPS for El Salvador without delay, and we must ensure a pathway to permanent residency and protect our Salvadoran neighbors in perpetuity.” | 1 | 2026-09-10T09:25:58Z | 2026-09-10T09:27:09Z |
