Friend --



OnMonday, September 14th, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned protections for nearly half a million Temporary Protective Status (TPS) holders after making a final verdict on the Ramos v. Nielsen lawsuit.



This means that the termination of TPS will be moving forward and TPS holders now have a deadline of when they will be falling out of status in the coming months.



In the LA area, roughly 1,400 port drivers are TPS holders.?Without TPS, drivers will lose their jobs and be at risk of deportation and indefinite separation from their families.



In response, TPS Holders, their families, and allies will hold a series of mobilizations and press conferences to express their disagreement with these decisions.



On?Monday, September 21st,?we will join CARECEN for a press conference (with social distancing measures implemented) and?we need faith leaders to perform a blessing in clergy attire.
