Biden Will Allow Ukrainian Immigrants In The US To Obtain Temporary Protected Status
The move comes as an estimated 1 million Ukrainians have fled Russia’s brutal invasion
The Biden administration will allow Ukrainians in the US to apply for temporary protected status, shielding them from deportation and allowing them to obtain work permits as Russia continues to invade and bombard their home country, officials announced Thursday.Immigrant advocates and Democratic politicians have been pushing for the TPS grant since the full-scale invasion launched last week.
