SOMALIA: The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalia. The decision affects thousands of Somali nationals who were allowed to live and work legally in the United States due to instability back home. Officials stated that conditions no longer meet the legal requirements for TPS designation. Advocacy groups have raised concerns about safety, humanitarian impact, and potential forced returns. The move adds pressure on vulnerable Somali communities amid ongoing conflict and economic hardship.

  • Pray that policymakers act with wisdom and mercy, considering the safety and dignity of Somali nationals affected by this decision (The Holy Bible, Micah 6:8).
  • Pray for Somali families facing uncertainty, that God would provide protection, favor, and stability during this transition (The Holy Bible, Psalm 82:3–4).
