San Diego, California – Haitian Bridge Alliance (HBA) welcomes the court’s decision to dismiss the states of Texas’ lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security for its Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans (CHNV) program. This decision represents a positive development in the ongoing efforts to support and protect vulnerable communities that are experiencing chronic insecurity, natural disasters, and for those seeking to reunite with family members in the United States. We appreciate the commitment of lawyers, NGOs and affected communities involved in upholding the rights and dignity of individuals seeking refuge, and we remain dedicated to advocating for fair and just immigration policies that prioritize compassion and humanity.

HBA will continue to monitor developments pertaining to the CHNV program.
