Tell Congress: Don't deport Yemenis fleeing war!
Please issue a statement now urging the Department of Homeland Security extend and redesignate Temporary Protected Status for Yemen, ahead of the decision by DHS expected on or around January 3, 2020.
Why is this important?
The Trump administration is deciding whether to allow Yemenis — fleeing one of the most brutal humanitarian crises in the world — to remain in the United States.
With the U.S. fueling the devastating Saudi- and UAE-led coalition war in Yemen, we MUST have a pathway for Yemenis seeking refuge here.
We have just over one month to build HUGE pressure to make Congress make the Trump administration to save Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Yemenis in the U.S. so that they’re not sent back into harm’s way.
We already won on preventing the Trump administration from completely ending TPS for Yemen last year. Let's win again this year AND get a redesignation so that thousands of more Yemenis can be protected through this necessary lifeline.
