Call your senators: support S.4814 and restore temporary protected status for our Haitian neighbors.

Our feeds have been flooded with hate. It's time we flood back to show our values.
Why your voice matters
TPS has been passed before in the Senate; the House voted to extend it with bipartisan support. 10 Republican members of the House flipped; we only need four in the Senate.
Many Haitians are pursuing legal options to stay in the U.S., such as seeking asylum, but the processes have intentionally been made more challenging; public pressure can force change.
We need to show that an attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. Authoritarianism fails when individual people start speaking out instead of staying silent.

Pressure these Republican Senators
We need four Republican senators to vote in favor of S.4814 to restore temporary protected status. We think the 11 senators we've listed are the most likely to support it. Some are in states with large Haitian populations; others are more moderate or in their final term. If these are your senators, call every day via the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121, or look up their direct number here. If you live elsewhere, you can still call your senators and send a message on social media to the 11 senators we've noted.
Pick a senator and an angle. We write it, you send it.
This is not a partisan issue, it's a people issue.
"Haiti is hell today, so you’d be sending people back, literally back to hell...The situation is really horrible. This is a dysfunctional government. This is a dysfunctional police. This is a country that’s in virtual chaos, and you see horrible tragedies that occur there every single day. "Mike DeWine, governor of Ohio (Republican) · MSN
