House Shields Haitians from Deportation

The legislation faces an uncertain future in the Senate, where the White House has already signaled that President Trump would likely exercise his veto power.

Supporters of the bill argue that deporting Haitians at this time would be a 'life and death matter' given the acute food insecurity and instability in the Caribbean nation.

The move reflects growing resistance within some segments of the GOP to the administration's hardline mass deportation agenda.

Humanitarian groups have welcomed the vote, highlighting that almost six million people in Haiti are currently facing severe hunger.
