Somali immigrants face sudden loss of legal work authorization and residency status

Somali nationals who have lived and worked legally in the US for 35 years under Temporary Protected Status (TPS) are losing their legal right to work and remain in the country, forcing them to urgently navigate immigration options, legal representation, and potential deportation. Affected individuals and their families need immediate solutions for maintaining legal status, but current immigration legal services are overwhelmed and expensive, leaving many without clear pathways forward.
