Morelle backs Afghan TPS vote: Congressman Joe Morelle says he has signed a discharge petition to force a House vote on the bipartisan Afghanistan Temporary Protected Status Act of 2026. The bill would extend TPS protections for eligible Afghan nationals in the U.S. through July 1, 2029.
Measure framed as humanitarian protection: The press release says the proposal is intended to help prevent deportations to Afghanistan, where supporters argue returnees could face persecution or violence under Taliban rule. Morelle and outside advocates said the U.S. has a responsibility to protect Afghan allies.
Criticism of policy changes: The release also says the Trump administration ended Afghanistan’s TPS designation in 2025, which it describes as creating fear and uncertainty for Afghan families in the U.S. It quotes advocates who say some families in New York’s Monroe County are affected.
