A coalition of 20 groups penned a letter to the White House on Monday pleading with President Biden’s administration to redesignate Temporary Protected Status for several countries, a move they say would allow newly arrived migrants in New York City to legally work.

The missive was written by labor unions including 32BJ SEIU and 1199SEIU, immigrant advocacy groups like the New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) and civic organizations such as the Association for a Better New York (ABNY).
