Dear Friends,
Haiti Action Committee supports this action alert from our friends at
the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti calling on legislators to
sign House Resolution 965 which
would allow a vote to extend TPS for Haitians for three years. Since the
Haiti solidarity community started making calls to support
Representative Pressley’s discharge petition

to extend TPS, the number of signatories has increased from 27 to 161,
more than halfway to the total required. You can click on the "discharge
petition" link above to see which California
reps have already signed and do not need to be called.

WE can stop the upcoming termination of TPS for 350,000 Haitians. Take
five minutes to do these three simple actions to protect Haitian TPS
holders!

Dear Friends,
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) keeps trying to terminate TPS
for 350,000 Haitians. DHS filed a notice of appeal with the DC Circuit
Court of Appeals, as expected, which may be the first step towards
petitioning the Supreme Court to block the District Court order stopping
DHS’ termination of TPS. If DHS succeeds in blocking the order, the
Department would immediately terminate TPS for Haitians, canceling work
authorizations and exposing 350,000 of our neighbors to the deportation
machine.
*There is still time to stop the termination*
*1.*If your representative has not yet signed (see discharge petition
<https://ijdh.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ce81af5c8a37aa0f72f93fc82&id=0283cba79e&e=2e026687e6>),
call the Congressional House switchboard, (202) 224-3121. Say your zip
code and ask to be connected to your Representative. When you are
connected, say “My name is ______, I live in (city/state/zip code). I am
calling to urge Representative _______ to sign House Resolution 965
<https://ijdh.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ce81af5c8a37aa0f72f93fc82&id=0483ad2be2&e=2e026687e6>,
the discharge petition to allow a vote to extend Temporary Protected
Status for Haitians. Time is of the essence, so I would ask Rep.
_______to sign the discharge petition the next time she/he is on the
House floor for a vote. Thank you for your consideration.”
*2.*Reach out to anyone and everyone who can help explain to the
Administration or Republican members of Congress how damaging TPS
termination will be for our economy, our communities and our Haitian
neighbors. If your employer hires TPS holders, ask them to make calls,
especially to the Administration. Ask local chambers of commerce, your
church, and any entity that has influence. Be creative and persistent!
Our Haitian neighbors need you!
