July 7, 2025 - WASHINGTON, DC – Today, U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) released a statement following new reporting on the Trump Administration’s decision to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for tens of thousands of immigrants from Nicaragua and Honduras—putting them at risk of deportation and tearing families apart.

“TPS recipients from Nicaragua and Honduras fled devastation more than 20 years ago, and they have since built their lives in the U.S. — raising children, working and contributing to our economy, and enriching our communities,” said Senator Rosen. “Ending protections for law-abiding TPS recipients without comprehensive immigration reform that gives them a pathway to citizenship is cruel and reckless. This unconscionable action shows the lengths Donald Trump will go to push his extreme anti-immigrant agenda and rip families apart. It’s more important than ever before that Congress passes the SECURE Act, so we can permanently protect TPS recipients and their families”

Senator Rosen has been a strong advocate for protecting TPS recipients and fighting back against Trump’s attacks on immigrant communities. She recently helped introduce the SECURE Act to provide permanent protections and a pathway to citizenship for TPS recipients. After the Supreme Court allowed Trump to revoke TPS for Venezuelans, Senator Rosen condemned the decision for putting families back into harm’s way. She has also urged the executive branch to act, joining colleagues in 2021 in calling on the Biden administration to expand and utilize TPS to protect vulnerable populations facing unsafe conditions in their home countries. Senator Rosen continues working to ensure immigrant families in Nevada and across the country are treated with dignity, compassion, and fairness under the law.
