Whilst this is a critical step towards supporting Afghan nationals, the administration must go further. Biden must highlight the need for Congress to act on their immigration status and lobby for the passage of the Afghan Adjustment Act to offer a pathway to permanent relief and US citizenship.
Biden has already put enough Americans at risk by introducing a flood of evacuees from a well-known terrorist safe haven, without any proper vetting. Designating Afghanistan for TPS only exacerbates threats to state security.
