Haitian migrants risk deportation from America after the Trump Administration terminated their temporary legal protections.
On Friday, the Department of Homeland Security that it is terminating legal protections for hundreds of thousands of Haitians, setting them up for potential deportation.
DHS said that conditions in Haiti have improved and Haitians no longer meet the conditions for the temporary legal protections.
‘This decision restores integrity in our immigration system and ensures that Temporary Protective Status is actually temporary,’ a DHS spokesperson said.
‘The environmental situation in Haiti has improved enough that it is safe for Haitian citizens to return home.’
The Department of State, however, has not changed its travel advisory and still recommends Americans ‘do not travel to Haiti due to kidnapping, crime, civil unrest, and limited health care.’
