Overview
We are thrilled to announce that Barack Ferrazzano has filed an amicus curiae brief in the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of Faith in Action and 56 Christian faith leaders serving Haitian diaspora communities across the country.
Our clients represent an extraordinary coalition — Catholic clergy and women religious, Baptist, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, and Evangelical pastors and bishops, and leaders of faith-based organizations with deep ties to both the United States and Haiti. We are privileged to have brought their voices to the nation's highest court.
The cases before the Court ask a critical question: what process does Congress require before Temporary Protected Status (TPS) protections can be revoked? Our brief argued that Congress designed TPS as a mandatory, fact-based framework — and that a genuine, evidence-grounded review is required before any designation can be terminated. The stakes could not be higher as for many of our clients' own congregants, losing TPS protection would be a matter of life and death.
We are immensely proud of the team behind this work: Robert E. Shapiro, Corwin J. Carr, Joshua W. Mahoney, Jill Doherty, and M. Olivia Glass.
