## Resource

Two hundred thousand Salvadoran immigrants in the U.S. are holding their breath as their Temporary Protected Status expires on September 9 — and the administration remains silent. With no official announcement, their status could automatically extend for six months, but legal experts warn of last-minute surprises. Granted after 2001 earthquakes, TPS has been revoked for over a dozen countries since Trump’s return to office. While El Salvador’s violence has dropped under President Bukele — seen as a Trump ally — human rights groups sound alarms over crackdowns, torture, and arbitrary arrests. Meanwhile, Salvadorans send home nearly $10 billion annually — vital to El Salvador’s economy. The final call rests with Homeland Security Secretary, amid rising tension and uncertainty for families counting on this lifeline.
