"TPS is a tool that can and should be used in tandem with ongoing economic, diplomatic, and humanitarian aid efforts to stabilize countries where some feel they have no alternatives but to emigrate." - @douglasrivlin
"While we are relieved for the Burmese community, following closely on the heels of the announcement of TPS for Venezuela, we hope that the Biden Administration continues to urgently use TPS as a tool to give protections to immigrants in the U.S." - @douglasrivlin
"With the Dream and Promise Act (HR 6) going to the floor next week, Congress should use this announcement as wind in their sails to stand up and protect DACA recipients, TPS holders and DED holders across the country." - @douglasrivlin
