Bronx Borough President condemns Trump administration’s decision to revoke temporary legal status for migrants

Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson issued a sharp rebuke of the Trump administration’s recent decision to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of migrants, calling the move “shameful” and “un-American.”

In a statement released Friday, Gibson said the policy change—which affects migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela—would disproportionately impact communities of color and weaken the social fabric of immigrant neighborhoods throughout the Bronx and beyond.
