Countries: El Salvador and Status

countries: The status is granted to countries ravaged by natural disasters or war, according to Metro News. It lets citizens of those countries remain in the U.S. until the situation improves back home. Nine immigrants and five children filed the suit in federal court in San Francisco to reinstate temporary protected status for people from El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua and Sudan. The lawsuit at least the third challenging the administration's decision to end temporary protected status cites President Donald Trump's vulgar language during a meeting in January to describe African countries. Arevalo spoke at a rally to announce the lawsuit outside the federal courthouse in San Francisco that was attended by some of the plaintiffs and dozens of demonstrators, some carrying signs that read, Let Our People Stay. They did it because of xenophobia, and we need to make sure that we say it loudly so that everyone knows, said Martha Arevalo, executive director of the immigrant advocacy group, Central American Resource Center.
