Dems urge Biden to extend controversial immigrant program; Trump says he'll cut it
Fox News
A controversial immigration program that was set up in the 1990s is back in the spotlight as Democrats demand President Biden extend protections before the new administration.
The Biden administration designated or re-designated a number of countries for TPS, including Venezuela, Haiti, Afghanistan and others, allowing hundreds of thousands of nationals to remain in the U.S. as a result. There are currently 17 countries designated for TPS. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

The first Trump administration sought to wind down TPS for a number of countries, but it was caught up in a yearslong court battle launched by left-wing civil rights groups on the matter.
