What This Is About:
The fabric of our communities and the stability of our economy are under immediate threat. Following the Supreme Court’s recent 6-3 ruling in Mullin v. Doe, the legal safety net has been pulled out from under approximately 350,000 Haitian and 6,000 Syrian immigrants. By upholding the administration’s termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS), this decision puts hundreds of thousands of legal, law-abiding residents at risk of sudden deportation to countries that remain fundamentally unsafe. 

These are our coworkers, business owners, neighbors, and friends. They came to the United States legally, fleeing catastrophic environmental disasters, war, and violence. Over years—and in some cases, decades—they have built lives here, raised American children, and become indispensable pillars of our communities.

The Economic and Human Toll
Forcing 356,000 people out of the workforce is not just a humanitarian crisis; it is a self-inflicted wound to the American economy.

Workforce Devastation: Removing these individuals abruptly pulls over 350,000 vital workers out of key industries, including healthcare, construction, hospitality, and agriculture, exacerbating severe labor shortages.
Loss to the Tax System: These individuals are taxpayers who contribute billions of dollars annually to federal, state, and local tax revenues, funding vital public services and social programs. 
Tearing Families Apart: Thousands of families face the horrific prospect of separation or being forced back to regions currently plagued by violent conflict and instability. 
The Action Plan: How Change Is Going to Happen
Because the Supreme Court ruled that the executive branch has the ultimate authority over TPS designations, our strategy must focus heavily on the White House, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and Congress. We will achieve our goals through a three-pronged approach:

1. Executive Pressure on the DHS Secretary
While the court ruled that the previous termination can proceed, it does not stop the current administration from issuing a new, immediate redesignation of TPS for Haiti and Syria based on current, ongoing crises in those nations. We demand that the Secretary of Homeland Security immediately issue new TPS designations to protect these populations from deportation and restore their work authorizations.

2. Demanding Legislative Action from Congress
Temporary Protected Status was never meant to leave people in limbo for decades. We are calling on Congress to immediately introduce and pass bipartisan legislation providing a permanent pathway to legal residency for long-term TPS holders who have been vetted and integrated into the U.S. economy.

3. Mobilizing Community and Corporate Coalitions
We are delivering this petition directly to the administration alongside business leaders, chamber of commerce representatives, and labor unions. By showing that American businesses cannot afford to lose 350,000+ workers, we will force a reassessment of the financial and logistical chaos this decision will cause.
