Bill H.R.285
US moves TPS bill for Pakistanis
From Sandra Johnson
WASHINGTON – The bill of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Pakistanis living in US has been moved in House of Representatives.
Al Green of Texas introduced H.R.285 to designate Pakistan under section 244 of the Immigration and Nationality Act to permit nationals of Pakistan to be eligible for temporary protected status (TPS) under such section.
This is second time that TPS bill was tabled in US House of Representatives; previously, its stipulated period came to an end, before the Congress gave its approval of the Bill. So, the Bill became ineffective after its due date.
Sheila Jackson, who co-sponsored legislation with Congressman Al Green in the house of representatives, said that this bill will provide opportunities of thousands of Pakistanis to go back to see their families they regret all the member of the Pakistani American whose living in USA to mobilize and act ivied their member of the congress so we will get more and more support to get this bill to pass.
Last week, Congressman Al Green (TX-09) introduced a bill in the House of Representatives which would grant Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Pakistani nationals affected by the devastating floods that ravaged Pakistan this past summer.
Temporary Protected Status allows aliens who do not legally qualify as refugees, but are nonetheless fleeing or reluctant to return to potentially dangerous situations, to temporarily remain in the United States.
Relating to the devastating floods in Pakistan in July 2010, this bill proposes to grant certain Pakistanis in the U.S. a Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 12 months.
Eligible alien must be a national of Pakistan who has been continuously physically present in the United States since July 22, 2010. --Agencies
