U.S. Representatives Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) and Debbie Dingell (MI-06) have introduced the Lebanon TPS Act, legislation to secure and extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Lebanon. The current designation is set to expire later this month. TPS allows eligible individuals to remain in the United States temporarily while conditions in their country of origin are too dangerous for a safe return. The bill would designate TPS for Lebanon until April 2029.
The bill is cosponsored by 18 additional Members of Congress and endorsed by more than 100 organizations, including the American Task Force on Lebanon.
