Many in the Capitol city of Monrovia lack running water or access to electricity. and waterborne illnesses like hepatitis A and typhoid fever are common. Eighty percent of Liberians are unemployed. The Liberian Government has pleaded for an extension of temporary protective status. saying it is not ready to accept the return of these Liberians. Unless we pass this bill. well make illegal immigrants of those responsible. hardworking. taxpaying Liberians that fled violence and war in Liberia to seek peace and safety in the United States. I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this excellent bipartisan bill supporting an extension of temporary protective status for these LibePians. I urge my colleagues support for this measure.
