The largest medical assistance union requires the re -frame of the TPS extension for Haitians

New York, the United States (CMC)-Uniited Healthcare Workers East, the largest and fastest US assistance union (US), asked the Trump administration to reinstall temporarily protected status (TPS) for Haitians.

“The decision of the Trump administration to end the expansion of temporarily protected status for Haitians is unconscious,” said George Grasham, 1199Siu United Healthcare East, for the Caribe Media Corporation (CMC).

“Haiti has been collected by a number of seizures in recent years, including natural disasters, band violence and political disorders. Half a million Haitians were received in the United States through the TPS program, allowing for safe refuge families while contributing to our communities and economy, ”he added.

“The US has to act in ways to support security and stability in Haiti and our hemisphere,” Greesham continued, whose union represents over 450,000 members throughout New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland, Florida and Washington, DC . “This is a moral thing to do in the best interests of all countries.”

“As a union of caretakers, many thousands belong to the Haitian diaspora, we also recognize how critical Haţian immigrants are for the medical care system of our nation, who are already facing serious labor deficiencies,” he said . “Haitians play a vital role in providing care in medical care houses, home care, hospitals, clinics and other medical assistance settings, and the elimination of TPS will have a negative impact on patient care.”

Grasham has asked the Trump administration to reverse “this improper decision immediately, which uselessly endangers the lives of innocent families who are loved ones, neighbors, collaborators and friends.”

Caribbean legislators and immigration lawyers also condemned TPS revocation by President Donald J Trump for Haitians.

“This decision is not only inhuman, but also reckless, because it forces thousands of working families in uncertainty and potential danger,” the Municipal Council of New York, Mercedes Narcisse, the representative of Haiten for 46, told the CMC. -the district of the Brooklyn Council. “Haiti is in the middle of an unprecedented crisis. With the gangs that control large parts of the country, including capital and without the government that work to address violence and instability, sending people back under these conditions is irresponsible and dangerous. “

“It is also crucial to recognize the historical role of the US government in current Haiti disorders,” Narcisse added, an assistant registered by training. “From economic interventions to political destabilization, the impact of American actions has contributed to the chaos in Haiti.”

“After decades of politicians who undermined the sovereignty of the Hait, the abandonment of those who seek refuge is a betrayal and a continuation of this harmful heritage,” she continued. “Let us remember that those granted TPS did not enter the US illegally. They sought refuge through legal channels, following the rules and were allowed to remain due to the extreme dangers they faced in the country of origin. “

“These families have made significant contributions to the United States, working in essential industries, such as medical assistance, construction and education,” she said. “Their development of their legal status is an attack on these hard -working persons, parents, children, workers and neighbors, who have become vital taxpayers to our communities and economy.”

Narcisse said that Trump’s decision will force Haitians “in the shadow, destabilize their lives and harm the industries that are based on their work.”

“I urge the Trump administration to reconsider this dangerous decision,” she said. “We have to stay with our brothers and our Haitian sisters, who endured enough, and make sure that they are allowed to stay safe and continue the contribution to the country they made at home. Haitians deserve safety, dignity and chance to continue to contribute to this great nation. “

The Member of the New York State Assembly, Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn, the daughter of Haitian immigrants, said: “The sudden redirection of the extension of the previous TPS administration in Haiti in 2026, reduces a rescue line for Haitians who are confront 500,000 who are currently looking for a sanctuary in the US. “

“TPS is granted to American immigrants who cannot return to their countries because of violence, natural disasters or political disorders -which suffer from Haiti,” said the president of the Democratic Party in Brooklyn, who represents the 42nd District of the Brooklyn Assembly. “Let us be clear: TPS does not offer a path to citizenship-its annulment for needy countries is a raw, racial motivated decision, which violates countless human rights.”

The woman of the Caribbean Congress, Yvette D Clarke, the daughter of Jamaican immigrants, who represents the 9th district of the Brooklyn Congress, has also joined the Caucus co-shoes in the US representative room in the conviction of Trump’s decision. .

“With Haiti, continuing to face indescribable violence and a terrible humanitarian, political and economic crisis, this is a shameful decision that could be a death sentence for over 500,000 Haitian relevors living in the United States,” said CO. -The presidents of Casa Haiti Caucus in a common statement. “The Haitians who lived in the United States up to 15 years old, raised children, started businesses and contributed to their communities risk deportation, for no other reason than to be Haitian.”

“We should do our best to save lives and bring stability and safety in Haiti – we do not throw vulnerable people in a bad way,” they added. “We ask the Trump administration to reverse this cruel and goat decision immediately.”
