This <a href=\"https:\/\/sflcn.com\/supreme-court-decision-and-its-impact-on-haitian-tps-holders\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">ruling could put hundreds of thousands of people at risk<\/a> of losing work authorization and deportation protections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis ruling is not just legally reckless; it is morally bankrupt,\u201d Holness said. \u201cThe six justices in the majority turned their backs on families who have lived, worked and contributed to this country for years. They also dishonored the history of a people whose fight for freedom helped shape the Americas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Holness said the decision will be felt deeply in South Florida, home to one of the nation\u2019s largest Haitian communities. He called on Congress to act immediately to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcmiami.com\/video\/nbc-6-news\/scotus-allows-trump-administration-to-end-tps-for-haitians\/3825929\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">protect Haitian families<\/a>. In addition, he urged the creation of a permanent legislative solution for TPS holders who have built their lives in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaitians did not come here because they lacked courage,\u201d Holness said. \u201cThey came because Haiti has endured catastrophic hardship \u2014 gang violence, political instability, natural disasters and economic collapse. They came with resilience, faith and a commitment to work, raise families and strengthen our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If elected, Holness said he would introduce legislation to restore protections for Haitian TPS holders. He would build bipartisan coalitions and press the administration to recognize conditions in Haiti that continue to make return unsafe. \u201cThe fight begins now,\u201d Holness said. \u201cIt will not stop until Haitian families have dignity, security and justice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BROWARD COUNTY\u00a0\u2014 Dale Holness, a candidate for Congress in Florida\u2019s 20th Congressional District and former Broward County mayor,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":321729,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[249,251,250],"class_list":["post-321728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fort-lauderdale","tag-fort-lauderdale","tag-fort-lauderdale-headlines","tag-fort-lauderdale-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321728","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=321728"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321728\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/321729"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=321728"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=321728"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=321728"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
