Bill Summary
Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1689) to require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status.
AI Summary
This resolution provides procedural guidelines for considering H.R. 1689, a bill that would require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status (TPS), which is a humanitarian immigration designation that allows nationals of certain countries experiencing ongoing armed conflict, environmental disaster, or other extraordinary conditions to temporarily remain in the United States. The resolution immediately allows the House to consider the bill, waives all points of order against its consideration, and automatically adopts an amendment in the nature of a substitute. The bill will be considered as read, with one hour of debate equally divided between majority and minority leadership, and allows for one motion to recommit. Additionally, the resolution instructs the Clerk to transmit the passed bill to the Senate within one week and specifically mandates that Haiti be granted TPS until three months after January 20, 2029, bypassing certain standard legislative procedural rules in the process.
