US Homeland Security Chief tell Haiti President Get Ready for Repatriation of Haitians with TPS

Jonh Kelly, The head of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, made it very clear that the "T" in TPS for Haitians stands "Temporary" during a recent visit to Haiti.

Kelly told Haitian president Jovenel that eventually the 60,000 Haitians living with this Temporary protected status will have to go back to Haiti.

The humanitarian program that allowed these Haitians to remain in the United States following the Haiti earthquake was never meant to be permanent, Kelly said.

"The operative word in the law is 'temporary.' It's not meant to be an open-ended law, but a temporary law," he said at a news conference at the Haiti National Palace.

Many Haitians are hoping that TPS will keep extending indefinitely but that's not gonna happen.

What do you think about that?
