10 Republicans Break Ranks to Keep Protected Status for Haitians

The Daily Signal - Thu, 04/16/2026 - 13:48

Ten House Republicans and one independent voted with Democrats on Thursday to allow more than 350,000 Haitian immigrants stay in the United States for another three years.

In a 224-204 vote, the House passed a bill that would require the Homeland Security secretary to designate Haiti for temporary protected status (TPS).

Haitians have had the designation in the United States since 2010, but the Trump administration has tried to terminate TPS, only to be blocked by federal courts.

The result of today’s vote was made possible by Republicans who broke with GOP leadership and voted yes on the measure.

“Who needs Democrats whenever you have a Republican tool vote for amnesty?” Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, told The Daily Signal just after the vote.

“The House just voted to codify, effectively, President Biden’s open-border policies for the Haitians,” he continued.

On Wednesday, six Republicans voted with Democrats to bring the measure to the floor. Even with pushback from the House Freedom Caucus, four more joined in breaking rank.

The six Republicans who voted to bring the bill to the floor included Reps. María Elvira Salazar and Carlos Giménez of Florida, Reps. Mike Lawler and Nicole Malliotakis of New York, Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska, and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.

On Thursday, Republican Reps. Mike Turner and Mike Carey of Ohio, Rich McCormick of Georgia, and Mario Díaz-Balart of Florida joined them, along with independent Rep. Kevin Kiley of California. When votes were finalized, cheers could be heard outside the House chamber.

“Voters elected us to help the president mass-deport illegal aliens who are in our country,” Gill continued, noting that the president specifically called out the Haitian immigrant community as needing reform during the 2024 election.

“You don’t turn around and give those very same people we were voted to deport amnesty,” Gill said. “It’s just a great way to just piss in the face of our voters who elected us to actually keep our community safe and secure.”

Gill noted that 91% of Haitians protected under TPS originally came into the United States illegally, and 69% came during the Biden administration.

“It’s unacceptable to see some Republicans breaking ranks to advance this Democrat-led bill, betraying the mandate voters gave them and delivering de facto amnesty,” a Heritage Action spokesperson told The Daily Signal.

“Heritage Action will not support amnesty—no exceptions,” the spokesperson continued.

“That is what this bill is,” Gill told The Daily Signal. “It is de facto amnesty for people who came into the country illegally.”

CCRKBA: BRADY ERASES SWALWELL FROM WEBSITE, BUT TAINT REMAINS

CCRKBA - Thu, 04/16/2026 - 13:41

BELLEVUE, WA – The anti-gun-rights Brady group, which previously endorsed Eric Swalwell for Congress and honored him as a guest speaker at a 2024 gala awards event—the same night he allegedly assaulted his female aide—has erased his name from its website and a video of the event has reportedly vanished from its YouTube page, but the taint of their past association remains, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.

The New York Post is reporting about Swalwell’s appearance at the Brady Campaign event, and what allegedly followed. When allegations surfaced about Swalwell, the Brady Campaign scrubbed all references to him, and called for his resignation. But CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb says the gun prohibition lobbying organization cannot erase history.

“Brady United and Swalwell were best friends until these lurid allegations surfaced,” Gottlieb stressed. “While Swalwell is entitled to a presumption of innocence and due process, that’s certainly not the way the Brady organization has treated gun owners in general.

“By pushing background checks, waiting periods and other extremist gun control measures,” he detailed, “Brady makes it clear they consider all gun owners and gun buyers guilty until proven innocent. Instead, maybe they should background check who they work with.

“The Brady group repeatedly endorsed Swalwell and worked with him, invited him to speak at their New York gala and happily supported his gun ban proposals,” Gottlieb continued, “but quickly abandoned him and tried to make their association disappear. We’re not going to let that happen.

“Maybe the Brady group should change its title to the ‘Brady Campaign to Prevent Sexual Violence,’” Gottlieb suggested, “especially since guns don’t commit violence, people do. They’re essentially shooting him in the back and burying him in an unmarked grave.

“What Swalwell allegedly did was despicable,” Gottlieb observed. “What the Brady Campaign is doing—making his name invisible on their website—is both cowardly and futile. History has recorded their past association, and that’s a stain you cannot wash away.”
