His stance follows a Supreme Court ruling that upheld the White House&#8217;s authority to revoke TPS for Haitian and Syrian migrants, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ceo-of-cyber-ninja-former-ariz-secy-of-state-hold-press-conference-on-ballot-audit-in-phoenix\/\" title=\"CEO OF Cyber Ninja, former Ariz.

Lawler emphasized the humanitarian and political crises in Haiti, arguing that TPS should be extended due to ongoing violence, gang activity, and the threat to Haitian immigrants&#8217; safety and livelihoods, many of whom work in healthcare. He urged the administration to allow TPS holders to maintain work authorization during the transition. Lawler&#8217;s position diverges from some House GOP leaders,reflecting his centrist approach,as he campaigns for re-election in a swing district against Democrat Cait Conley.  <\/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<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rep.
