Caroline Sunshine: The First Word in TPS Is ‘Temporary,’ When Is Haiti Going to Be Livable?

‘It‘s always supposed to be temporary’

RUSH EXCERPT

SUNSHINE: “Yeah it is. And so the court‘s decision is actually really good for Haiti as a country, as a sovereign nation, because the first word in tps is temporary. It‘s always supposed to be temporary. And specifically in regards to the Haitians who have come here, the first batch came, I think, in 2010 after the earthquake in Haiti. It‘s been 16 years since the earthquake. So that‘s not temporary. Um, and at what point, by American standards, are we going to decide that Haiti is livable again? When‘s that day coming? Is that coming in six months? Is that coming in a year? Probably not anytime soon.”
