About USCRI

USCRI, the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, is a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting and empowering vulnerable migrants and refugees around the world. With a rich history spanning several decades, USCRI remains at the forefront of advocating for just and compassionate immigration policies.

164-Organization Coalition for TPS Redesignation

USCRI, along with a diverse coalition of 164 organizations, is actively calling for the redesignation of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Afghanistan. TPS is a humanitarian program that provides temporary relief and work authorization to individuals from countries facing armed conflict, natural disasters, or other extraordinary circumstances that prevent their safe return.

The Importance of Afghanistan TPS Redesignation

Afghanistan has been grappling with instability, violence, and humanitarian crises for years. The ongoing conflict and uncertain political climate make it unsafe for Afghan nationals to return and rebuild their lives. Redesignating TPS for Afghanistan is crucial to ensure the protection and livelihoods of thousands of Afghan individuals and families currently residing in the United States.
