GOP Sen. Katie Britt: House-passed bill to extend Haitian refugee status DOA in Senate

Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) stated that a House-passed bill to extend legal protections for Haitian refugees is "dead on arrival" in the Senate. Britt, who chairs the Senate Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee, offered a strong rebuke to moderate House Republicans who voted with Democrats on the measure. Her comments indicate that the bill, which seeks to extend Haitian refugee status, will not advance in the Senate. This stance reflects a significant division within Congress regarding immigration policy and the future of legal protections for these refugees.
