The U.S. House of Representatives voted on Thursday to extend Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Haitian nationals living in the United States. The measure passed with a handful of Republicans joining Democrats, marking a rare legislative rebuke of President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement agenda. The bill now faces an uncertain future in the Senate, where it is likely to be blocked following a massive public backlash against the Republican members who supported it in the House.
