The federal government is seeking to revoke the Temporary Protected Status, which allows them to reside in the United States due to unsafe conditions in their home country, from Hondurans on Sept. 8.

“It’s a terrifying thing for us,” Honduran TPS recipient William said, who used an alias out of fear of retribution. “We don’t know what’s going to happen to our families, to the businesses that we own, to the communities that we serve. Not only is it going to affect my family but it’s going to affect the families of my employees and the people of the communities that we serve.”
