A high-profile delegation of federal and local elected officials, immigrant advocates, and legal experts just completed their travel to Honduras and El Salvador to bolster ongoing fact-finding efforts to build legal defense and legislative supports for Central American asylum seekers and migrants, including Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, in the US. Delegation participants toured San Pedro Sula, Tegucigalpa, and San Salvador, cities wracked by escalating violence, poverty, and impunity that has driven unprecedented levels of migration from Central America since the 1980s. Ivn Espinoza-Madrigal will talk about the delegations findings and raise awareness of the conditions driving migration from the region"and the negative consequences that await an estimated 250,000 TPS holders.
