USA – Temporary legal status for Haitians already living in the United States is being expanded by the Biden administration.

This as the U.S. says it has determined conditions in the Caribbean nation were too dangerous for their forced return.

The Homeland Security Department said Haitians who were in the U.S. before November 6 could apply for temporary protected status and those who were granted it last year could stay an additional 18 months until August 3, 2024.

Haiti has seen increasingly brazen attacks by gangs that have grown more powerful since the July 2021 assassination of President Jovenel Moïse. A cholera outbreak sweeping the country is claiming more children’s lives amid a surge in malnutrition.
