On July 23, 2026, the Supreme Court decision allowed the Trump administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Syrian and Haitian nationals. This decision impacts hundreds of thousands of migrants.
Leaders in the senior care industry express significant concern. Workers with TPS are a crucial segment of the workforce, already under pressure.
Geoff Bennett, co-anchor and co-managing editor of PBS News Hour, explored this issue further with Katie Smith Sloan from LeadingAge.
Katie Smith Sloan emphasized the vital role these workers play in senior care. The industry already struggles with staffing shortages, and the loss of TPS workers adds to the challenge.
LeadingAge continues to advocate for policies that address workforce needs in senior care.
The loss of TPS workers affects not only the migrants but also the quality of care in the sector. Organizations and leaders need to find solutions quickly.
This issue remains a topic of concern as stakeholders seek ways to support the affected workers and maintain adequate care for seniors.
