Florida Republican Rep. Carlos Giménez says the Trump administration should reconsider plans to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians after a Supreme Court ruling allows the rescission of the program. Speaking Sunday, Giménez—who is associated with a Miami Cuban exile background—argues that removing protections would be a “huge mistake.” Both outlets report that Giménez characterizes Haiti as a “failed state,” and he cautions that deporting Haitians who currently have TPS would return people to a dangerous, unstable situation. The news reports tie his comments to the Supreme Court’s decision that the administration can move forward with eliminating temporary legal protections for eligible migrants. The articles note that the number affected is described in the hundreds of thousands, with one report citing approximately 350,000 Haitians. Giménez’s remarks represent a break from the administration’s direction, as he calls for the White House to reconsider the effort to deport TPS recipients amid the court-allowed termination process.
