The Trump administration announced plans to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 350,000 Haitian immigrants, making them eligible for deportation by early February unless they secure alternative legal status.

The TPS for Haiti, which allows beneficiaries to live and work in the U.S. without fear of deportation, is set to expire on February 3.
