We can ensure safety for refugees, including those from Syria,
as well as their host communities. As our noble efforts at assistance
must not be hijacked, this blogger believes that our communications MUST specifically state that contraceptives/abortifacients MUST be excluded from "assistance."

- Action Alert to DHS: Extend TPS for Haitians
PLEASE NOTE: "The Trump administration’s decision to allow 50,000 Haitian earthquake
victims to remain in the United States prompted gratitude from the U.S.
bishops’ conference, which stressed the need for continued work to aid
Haitians here and in their home country. 'While this extension is helpful, it still leaves many Haitian
families in the United States in an insecure and vulnerable position,
particularly with respect to ensuring legal work authorization,' Bishop
Joe S. Vasquez of Austin, chairman of the U.S. bishops’ migration
committee, said May 23. The Department of Homeland Security’s decision extended the Obama
administration’s protections for Haitians who had arrived in the U.S.
within a year of the massive 2010 earthquake. They may remain with work
authorizations until January 2018....Temporary protected status may be provided to citizens of countries
that are suffering from severe violence, disease and natural disasters.
At present countries designated for that status include Sudan, Somalia,
Syria, El Salvador, Nepal, and Yemen, Reuters reports" (CNA/EWTN, 5/23/17)
