Bishop Thomas Wenski Requests TPS for Haitian Nationals
In a letter to the editors of the Miami Herald, Thomas Wenski, the Bishop of the Orlando Diocese of the Catholic Church makes an appeal to the Obama administration to grant temporary protected status to Haitian Nationals. Bishop Wenski points out that three key Florida Representatives - Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Mario Diaz-Balart, and Lincoln Diaz-Balart - are no longer supporting the bill to grant TPS to Haiti. The bill known as the Haitian Protection Act of 2009 has 42 co-sponsors in Congress.
