Urgent Call on Biden to Redesignate TPS for Haiti and Nicaragua
President Biden has less than two months to take action to protect Haitian and Nicaraguan immigrants whose Temporary Protection Status will expire during the next Administration, and to offer TPS to recently-arrived immigrants from those countries. We call on the White House to act now while we still can. You may use the template letter that we have drafted or create your own. We thank you all for supporting Haitian and Nicaraguan nationals who are contributing so much to our country.

Quixote Center is Anti-Racist
Quixote Center is an anti-racist organization. The history of racism, systematic oppression and exploitation of people of color began with the origins of this country and continues with devastating effects today among communities of color. These include pervasive anti-Blackness as a hallmark of living in the United States, and the notion that making America great includes expelling immigrants of color. We believe that efforts toward diversity, equity and inclusion are what is making our country great.
Updates on Migration
The news cycle has been spinning out of control since January 20. The shock and awe tactic intends to destabilize and demoralize the opposition.

We assess the impact they are having and what we can do to better protect our friends and neighbors who fear being deported.
