I am demanding action: pass H.R. 1689, extend TPS, protect these families, and save lives. And I will not stop fighting until this injustice is ended.
Continue fighting to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians and protect Haitian families.
Occurrences
Evidence
Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson said the House passed H.R. 1689 to require DHS to designate Haiti for TPS and that she is demanding the Senate pass it, ending with, 'I will not stop fighting until this injustice is ended.'
The House roll call for H.R. 1689 shows the bill passed on April 16, 2026, by a vote of 224-204, with the question 'To require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status.'
GovInfo shows H.R. 1689 was 'Placed on Calendar Senate' on April 21, 2026, indicating the House-passed measure advanced to the Senate but was not enacted during the lookback window.
Assessments
Wilson actively pursued the promised TPS protection for Haitians during the same federal term: she backed and publicly advocated for H.R. 1689, which passed the House on April 16, 2026 and would require DHS to designate Haiti for Temporary Protected Status. However, the measure had only been placed on the Senate calendar as of April 21, 2026, with no evidence it was enacted or that TPS was actually extended through this effort. Because the promise includes both continued advocacy and the substantive extension/protection outcome, the record supports meaningful progress and effort but not full delivery.
