his bipartisan discharge petition to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Haitians in the United States
I will work to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haitians.
Occurrences
Evidence
"Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost (FL-10) announced that his bipartisan discharge petition to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Haitians in the United States... has passed the House of Representatives. The bill now moves to the Senate."
Roll Call 120 shows the House vote on passage of H.R. 1689, "To require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status," with status "Passed" by a vote of 224 yea to 204 nay on Apr 16, 2026.
The House passed the bipartisan discharge petition to extend Haiti TPS for three years, and "the measure now heads to the United States Senate."
The page lists Congressman Maxwell Frost among participants in the push for the Haiti TPS vote, and says the House must act and "the Senate must follow with the same urgency."
Senate Democrats wrote to DHS expressing concern over the November 2025 decision to terminate TPS for Haiti, effective February 3, 2026, and urging reversal.
Roll Call 120 shows H.R. 1689 passed the House 224-204 on Apr. 16, 2026; the bill would require DHS to designate Haiti for TPS.
Assessments
Maxwell Frost did materially advance a Haiti TPS extension effort by leading a discharge petition that passed the House on April 16, 2026, but the measure only moved to the Senate and did not by itself extend TPS. That makes the promise partially fulfilled rather than fully delivered.
The promise was to work to extend TPS for Haitians, and the evidence shows Frost materially advanced that goal in the House: he led or helped lead a bipartisan discharge petition and the relevant House measure passed on April 16, 2026. However, the available record only shows House passage and transmission to the Senate, not final enactment or a completed executive action actually extending TPS. Additional evidence also indicates Haiti TPS remained contested at the executive level in 2026. Because the promised outcome was not clearly completed, but Frost made a serious and concrete effort toward it during his term, the best classification is unresolved with an effort badge.
