The Trump administration is now banning Haitians from getting temporary work visas.
The Department of Homeland Security says there were "High levels of fraud and abuse" with Haitians who had this visa.

Another top employer, MGM Grand says: MGM Resorts continues to support our employees who legally live and work in the U.S. under temporary protected status. These individuals are productive members of our communities and our country, who have worked very hard to make secure lives for themselves and their families. Their plight makes it all the more urgent for Congress to take up comprehensive immigration reform.
As their fate remains hanging in the balance, thousands of immigrants in Nevada are pleading the government for a solution.
"They need to stay with the people. Because. When everybody is together, we'll be more strong," says Membreno.
