Lets people from Burma in the U.S. legally stay and work for 18 months.

This bill would let certain people from Burma who are already in the United States legally stay and work here temporarily. It would give them "Temporary Protected Status" for an initial 18-month period, starting November 25, 2025. This means they could avoid deportation and get work permits if they meet specific rules.

What Would Change

Right now, people from Burma in the United States do not have Temporary Protected Status (TPS) unless the Secretary of Homeland Security decides to grant it. If this bill becomes law, Burma would automatically get TPS for 18 months starting November 25, 2025, allowing eligible Burmese nationals to live and work in the U.S. legally during that time.

Key Provisions

Sets the initial TPS period for Burma at 18 months, starting November 25, 2025.
