U.S. bishops urge continued immigration protections for Ukrainians, Salvadorans

Ukrainian and El Salvadoran temporary protected status (TPS) beneficiaries will continue to retain immigration protections, pending an announcement “made at the appropriate time,” the government said. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) statement said.

Catholic bishops warned that uncertainty over immigration protections for Ukrainians and Salvadorans could result in deportations and family disruption if temporary protected status (TPS) lapses.
