This \u200cpolicy is in response to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ukraine-invasion-sanctions-will-see-russian-economy-shrink-by-35-percent-jp-morgan\/\" title=\"Ukraine Invasion Sanctions Will See Russian Economy Shrink by 35 Percent: JP Morgan\">ongoing armed conflict<\/a> \u2062in Lebanon, \u200cparticularly attributed to the actions of \u200bthe terrorist group \u200cHezbollah, which \u2062has been involved in launching attacks against Israel. The TPS allows eligible immigrants to\u200d work legally\u200c and stay in \u200dthe U.S. for 18 months while the \u2064government seeks a \u200bdiplomatic\u200d resolution for stability in\u2062 the region.<\/p>\n<p>While the policy is \u2064intended to assist those displaced by violence, critics have raised \u2062concerns about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/swedens-top-airport-hires-company-linked-to-chinese-communists-for-security-screening\/\" title=\"Sweden&#039;s Top Airport Hires Company Linked to Chinese Communists for Security Screening\">potential security risks<\/a>, suggesting that the administration may not adequately vet individuals\u2064 entering the country.\u200b Some detractors fear that this could allow Hezbollah sympathizers or operatives to gain entry into the U.S. The article notes that public reaction on social media has been\u2064 largely negative, with\u2063 accusations that the administration is prioritizing foreign nationals over American \u200ccitizens who \u200care facing job\u2064 shortages and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/us-announces-new-immigration-program-for-ecuadorians\/\" title=\"New US immigration program introduced for Ecuadorians.\">socio-economic challenges<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the policy includes provisions for\u2064 Lebanese students in the U.S., allowing them more\u200b flexibility in \u2062their employment and academic commitments. Approximately 11,000 Lebanese nationals may\u200b benefit from \u2064this new policy, including around 1,740 students\u2062 eligible for Special Student Relief.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> <script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Immigrants from Lebanon &mdash;

This TPS policy is applicable to those who entered the U.S. before Wednesday, as stated in a Department of Homeland Security news release. Critics have already voiced concerns that this could endanger Americans. The release justifies this status due to ongoing armed conflict and extraordinary conditions in Lebanon that hinder safe return for its nationals, but it does not mention that Hezbollah has been launching rocket attacks against northern Israel from southern Lebanon since Hamas&#8217;s invasion on October 7, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced an 18-month TPS designation for Lebanon due to these circumstances, allowing approved individuals to stay while diplomatic efforts are made for stability along the Israel-Lebanon border. The DHS also encourages Lebanese nationals eligible for Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) to apply for Employment Authorization Documents valid until January 25, 2026. Additionally, F-1 non-immigrant students from Lebanon can request employment authorization and work increased hours while studying.<\/p>\n<p>Approximately 11,000 Lebanese nationals may qualify for DED and TPS; around 1,740 F-1 students could benefit from Special Student Relief. However, many have criticized this policy on social media as potentially aiding not only those genuinely displaced by conflict but also Hezbollah sympathizers or operatives within the U.S., given Hezbollah&#8217;s ties with Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Concerns about inadequate vetting processes were raised after reports of an admitted Hezbollah member attempting to cross into Texas with plans for a bombing attack surfaced earlier this year. Critics argue that blanket TPS orders without proper vetting pose risks to American citizens amid rising job shortages and crime rates while prioritizing immigrants over them<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2356626,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/biden-harris-for-oct.-18-2024.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[34137,36382,43276],"class_list":["post-2356625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-biden-harris-administration","tag-immigration-policy","tag-protected-status"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/biden-harris-for-oct.-18-2024.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2356625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2356625"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2356625\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2356626"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2356625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2356625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2356625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
