TPS Update: Full List of Republicans Breaking With Donald Trump

Six House Republicans and California Independent Representative Kevin Kiley joined all Democrats on Wednesday to advance legislation extending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian immigrants, delivering a 219–209 vote that moved the measure forward over opposition from President Donald Trump and his allies.

The House Republicans voting to extend TPS were: Don Bacon of Nebraska, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Mike Lawler of New York, María Elvira Salazar of Florida, Carlos Giménez of Florida, and Nicole Malliotakis of New York. Kiley recently left the Republican Party to become an independent.

The action allows a discharge petition led by Rep. Ayanna Pressley, a Massachusetts Democrat, to proceed, seeking to extend TPS protections for Haitians through April 2029.
