House moves to extend Haitian TPS to 2029, challenging Trump policy
TL;DR
The House is poised to vote on a discharge petition that would force a floor debate on extending temporary protected status for Haitians through 2029, countering the Trump administration's plan to wind down protections. The effort, led by Rep. Ayanna Pressley and backed by several Republicans, would require DHS to renew TPS for Haitians and comes as the Supreme Court weighs the related legal challenge; passage would still face a Senate path and a potential veto.
