It also addresses concerns regarding the Afghan nationals in the United States. The legislation, if passed, would mandate the revetting of nationals of Afghanistan and it will provide for automatic termination of temporary protected status (TPS).
President Trump has been trying to end TPS for Afghans but it was stopped by the courts, our judicial tyrants, of course. Cotton’s legislation would address this.
