New York, NY—Today, the United States Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, announced the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS), leaving 500,000 Haitians without work permits and deportations.
The temporary parole program will expire for individuals on August 3, 2025, and the termination will take effect on Tuesday, September 2, 2025.
Murad Awawdeh, President and CEO, New York Immigration Coalition:
“The Trump administration’s decision to end TPS for Haiti is a cruel attack on Haitian New Yorkers and is another example of this administration’s ongoing efforts to destabilize immigrant communities and tear families apart.
