参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党参议员查克·舒默希望延长对海地移民的保护，而共和党人称这完美体现了他将非法移民的利益置于美国民众之上。
本周早些时候，舒默将众议院通过的一项法案快速列入参议院议事日程，该法案将把海地移民的临时保护身份（TPS）延长三年。该法案最终能否提交全院投票，最终取决于参议院多数党领袖、南达科他州共和党议员约翰·图恩。
这位参议院民主党最高领导人推动在参议院通过该法案之际，正值海地移民受保护身份问题以及一场部分围绕美国境内移民行动展开的资金争夺战处于转折点。

带领参议院共和党人谈判以达成妥协协议、结束国土安全部（DHS）停摆的阿拉巴马州共和党参议员凯蒂·布里特对福克斯新闻数字频道表示：“我很高兴他始终将非美国公民的利益放在首位。”
“那些无数死于非法移民之手的美国民众又该怎么办？我的意思是，你竟然试图削减负责保障我们街道安全、守护边境安全、让美国人能够晚上平安回家与家人团聚的机构的资金，”布里特说道，“他的优先事项完全、彻底地搞错了。”
就在舒默努力延长海地移民保护身份的同时，国土安全部仍因移民海关执法局（ICE）和海关与边境保护局（CBP）的资金分歧陷入停摆。

这项法案上周在众议院获得通过，10名共和党议员违抗唐纳德·特朗普总统的命令，与民主党人一起投票，保护超过35万海地国民免遭驱逐。
临时保护身份计划允许那些母国遭遇人道主义危机或危险状况的外国公民暂时在美国生活和工作，无需担心被驱逐，但该计划并未提供公民身份途径。
舒默本周早些时候在参议院发言时指出，海地移民在特朗普竞选期间成为政治爆点，当时特朗普声称俄亥俄州的一个海地社区在吃宠物。

“尽管海地持续发生暴力、帮派冲突、国内动荡，医疗基础设施糟糕，食物获取困难，”舒默说道，“特朗普却指示克里斯蒂·诺姆剥夺海地移民的临时保护身份，无视国会制定的法定程序。”
特朗普试图撤销海地的该项目，并辩称由于该国局势有所改善，给予海地人法律保护与美国利益背道而驰。但他的政府的相关举措目前在法院陷入停滞。
如果该法案提交全院投票，共和党人计划迅速将其否决。

当被问及该法案在参议院是否有通过的可能时，俄亥俄州共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺用食指和拇指比出了一个零的手势。
“零可能性，”莫雷诺对福克斯新闻数字频道说道，“舒默满脑子都是‘非法移民优先’，这太离谱了。”

‘Illegals first’: Senate Republicans blast Schumer’s gambit to force vote on protecting Haitian migrants

Sen Bernie Moreno says the bill has no chance as the legislation to extend Temporary Protected Status for 350,000 Haitians heads to the upper chamber

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., wants to extend protections for Haitian migrants, and Republicans say it’s a perfect example of him putting the interests of illegal immigrants over Americans.
Schumer fast-tracked a House-passed bill that would extend the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) of Haitian migrants for three years earlier this week onto the Senate schedule. Whether it actually makes it to the floor is ultimately up to Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D.
The top Senate Democrat’s desire to pass the legislation in the Senate comes at an inflection point for both the protected status of Haitian migrants and a funding battle started, in part, over immigration operations in the country.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., fast-tracked a House-passed bill to extend the protected status of Haitian migrants for another three years, but Sens. Katie Britt, R-Ala., and Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, say it’s the perfect example of Schumer prioritizing illegals over Americans.(Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc. via Getty Images; Nathan Posner/Anadolu via Getty Images; Graeme Sloan/Bloomberg via Getty Images)
HOUSE REPUBLICANS DEFY TRUMP TO SHIELD HAITIANS FROM DEPORTATION
Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., who led negotiations for Senate Republicans to try to strike a compromise deal to end the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown, told Fox News Digital, “I’m so glad that he is prioritizing people who are not American consistently.”
“What about the countless Americans that have died at the hands of illegal aliens? I mean, the fact that you’re literally trying to defund the organization that is tasked with keeping our streets safe, our borders secure, keeping Americans — allowing Americans to go home to their families at night,” Britt said. “It’s just totally, his priorities are completely and totally off.”
While Schumer is trying to extend the protected status of Haitian migrants, DHS is still shut down over disagreements on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) funding.

The legislation made it through the House last week after 10 Republicans bucked President Donald Trump and joined Democrats to shield more than 350,000 Haitian nationals from deportation.
The TPS program allows foreign nationals whose home countries face humanitarian crises or dangerous conditions to temporarily live and work in the United States without fear of deportation, but it does not provide a pathway to citizenship.
Schumer noted on the Senate floor earlier this week that Haitian migrants became a political flash point during Trump’s campaign, in which he claimed that a community of Haitians in Ohio were eating pets.

“Despite ongoing violence, gang violence, civil instability, terrible medical infrastructure, and poor food access in Haiti,” Schumer said, “Trump directed Kristi Noem to strip Haitian immigrants of their TPS, their Temporary Protected Status, disregarding the process Congress set into law.”
Trump tried to revoke the program for Haiti and argued that because conditions have improved in the country, granting Haitians legal protections runs counter to American interests. But his administration’s effort is currently snarled in the courts.
And if it were to make it to a vote, Republicans plan to swiftly kill it.

When asked whether the bill stood a chance in the upper chamber, Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, flashed a zero sign by connecting his index finger and thumb.
“Zero point zero,” Moreno told Fox News Digital. “Schumer is all illegals first, it’s crazy.”
