President Donald Trump’s deputies are ending the often-extended ‘TPS’ temporary refugee status for up to 200,000 El Salvadoran migrants, which was first granted when earthquakes hit their home country in 2001.
The TPS decision underlines Trump’s determination to enforce the nation’s immigration laws, and to push his “Buy American, Hire American” inauguration-day promise, despite growing pressure from the GOP’s business-first wing, Democrats and their allies in the establishment media.
...Many of the El Salvador migrants were living illegally in the United States when the earthquake hit their home country in 2001.
Since then, the “Temporary Protected Status” has been extended 11 times by Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama..."DHS has ended TPS for El Salvadorians - another step of Trump’s racist agenda to force people of color into the shadows.
Congress must act now to save TPS or they'll be complicit in mass expulsion of people who have lived in the US for nearly 20 years.wapo.st/2FhaIMn
