[quote=Anonymous]What Trump is doing like in the case of DACA is to hold Congress' feet to the fire and, unlike Obama, tells them that if they want to provide some sort of refuge for these Salvadorans then do it through legislation - not through executive action.

[i][b]"200,000 Salvadorans may be forced to leave the U.S. as Trump ends immigration protection"[/b][/i]

[i]The Trump administration has canceled the provisional residency permits of about 200,000 Salvadorans who have lived in the country since at least 2001, leaving them vulnerable to deportation, according a copy of a Department of Homeland Security announcement sent to lawmakers Monday.

The administration will notify the Salvadorans that they have until Sept. 9, 2019, to leave the United States or find a new to obtain legal residency.

The Salvadorans were granted what is known as Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, after earthquakes devastated their country in 2001.

According to the DHS statement, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen determined that conditions in El Salvador have improved significantly since then, ending the original justification for the deportation protection.

“Only Congress can legislate a permanent solution addressing the lack of an enduring lawful immigration status of those currently protected by TPS who have lived and worked in the United States for many years,” the announcement states. “The 18-month delayed termination will allow Congress time to craft a potential legislative solution.”[/i]
