Liccardo and Crow seek a House vote to restore Temporary Protected Status for Afghan allies facing deportation.
Investivoq AI Summary
Liccardo and Crow seek House vote: Reps. Sam Liccardo and Jason Crow said they filed a discharge petition to force a House vote on the bipartisan Afghanistan TPS Act of 2026. The measure would restore Temporary Protected Status for more than 9,000 Afghans who could face deportation if protections are not renewed.
Supporters cite safety and U.S. commitments: In statements, the lawmakers said the U.S. should keep its promises to Afghan allies who worked with American forces. They said the petition would bypass House leadership if it reaches 218 signatures and bring the bill to the floor.
Background cited in the release: The release says DHS granted TPS to more than 9,000 Afghans after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, and that the Trump administration ended those protections in 2025. It also says a federal judge temporarily blocked an effort to deport some Afghan refugees.
