Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1689) to require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status.

H.Res. 965 is a procedural resolution that would enable the House of Representatives to consider H.R. 1689, a bill requiring the Department of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status (TPS). If enacted, the underlying bill would extend TPS protections for Haitian nationals through April 2029. Temporary protected status allows eligible individuals from designated countries to remain in the United States, obtain work permits, and avoid deportation during periods when conditions in their home country make return unsafe. This resolution does not itself have the force of law; it simply sets the rules for how the House would debate and vote on the underlying Haiti TPS bill. The resolution has been referred to the House Rules Committee and a discharge petition has been filed to bring it to a floor vote, indicating that supporters are seeking to move the measure forward despite committee delays.
