HR 7014 United States House · 119th Congress

To provide for the designation of Burma for temporary protected status.

HR 7014 designates Burma for temporary protected status (TPS) under U.S. immigration law, providing eligible Burmese nationals temporary legal status in the U.S. The bill establishes an 18-month TPS period beginning November 25, 2025, for Burmese nationals who have continuously resided in the U.S. since the bill's enactment, are admissible as immigrants (with limited exceptions), and register with Homeland Security. It also requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to grant prior consent for travel abroad for those with emergency circumstances and ensures returning travelers retain their TPS status. This policy change directly affects Burmese nationals meeting these specific criteria, offering temporary protection from deportation.
