What would it take for President Obama to grant temporay protected Status for the country of Haiti? I think all concern americans should to something to help send this message to Washington D. C.
may be he want to follow George W Bush foot step . that the reason why he still sleeping.
Haitian need temporary protective status like every other nation,where already granted it. they are part of the American society. they pay tax like every other nation.
the haitian people need tps and they need to be legalize in this country just like everybody else they came to this country for a better life and to help their family they shouldn’t be treated like criminals and animals in the detention center.
haitian need help please president obama.we are part of the american society.we need the temporary protective status like every other nation.
