Immigrants With Protected Status Sue To Restore Path To Green Cards

The video discusses the case of a Haitian-born immigrant, Bazile, who faces deportation due to a policy change by the Trump administration. Bazile, who has lived in the US since she was a baby, had temporary protected status (TPS), which allowed her to work and avoid deportation. However, a recent policy change ended the practice of TPS recipients leaving the US to reset their deportation orders, affecting Bazile's green card application. The change is being legally challenged, with advocates arguing it leaves many in limbo. The Trump administration contends that previous pathways to permanent residency for TPS holders were not intended by Congress. The video concludes with the current legal status and ongoing appeals.
