Unfortunately. this has not deterred the military rules from holding on to power. With violence and repression widespread. it is no surprise that thousands of Haitians have fled Haiti. These are desperate people. Madam Speaker. The United Sttes must not turn its back on them. We need to reverse the administrations hypocritical and inhumane policy. They need our protection. not mistreatment. For this reason I urge my colleagues to support legislation to grant temporary protected status to Haitians until such time as the democratically elected government is restored. I come from an island people. Do you know the power and majesty of the ocean?
