President Juan Orlando Hernandez’s government expressed regret over a U.S. move Friday to end temporary protected status, or TPS, for tens of thousands of Hondurans who have resided in the United States for nearly two decades.
The foreign relations ministry said in a statement that it is a sovereign matter for Washington to decide, but added that “we deeply lament it.”
It said returnees “are and always will be welcome in their homeland, where they will be received with open arms,” and “their reintegration into our society will be facilitated.”

Don’t believe it for a second! This is out way too fast.....lolol.....who do they think they’re kidding!
The post just wanted opportunity to say it’s going to fracture families!..............same o save o!
Stunning how fast the Post put this out there and no surprise the Dems are on it as well.........
One would think getting these hard-working Hondorans back would be an asset or the country. They should used their experiences and ties with the US to build a stronger economy in their homeland.
they lament all the cash that will no longer be flowing back into their sh!thole
There's a new Sheriff in town.From now on you're gonna have to deal with your *own* downtrodden.
To translate, our country is far too dangerous for anyone to live in.
"1.1 million-plus Hondurans living in the United States, who each year send home remittances totaling some $4.2 billion, or nearly one-sixth of Honduras’ $26 billion gross domestic product."
And now that they've established that, there's no reason for them not to go back. LOL!
Don't know whether that was grand strategery by Trump or not, but his enemies sure cut their own throats on this one!
Oh that’s exactly right! Let’s just put these figures out there again!
“1.1 million-plus Hondurans living in the United States, who each year send home remittances totaling some $4.2 billion, or nearly one-sixth of Honduras’ $26 billion gross domestic product.”
But pointing out that fact is racist!
Do you think they can produce those figures in their home country let alone suffer any inconvenience while they do so???????
It’s always about the money......always and will forever be and who gets to rob our country for it!
Watch their President make that a real event in order for the people not to be returned!
BTW...the Dems will have their activists stir up lots of trouble In Hondourus just to keep them here....they vote don’t you know.
100%
Mexico gets a pretty packet from it’s “guest workers” too.
Except that you "deeply lament" their return. That really says 'welcome home.'
Como se dice "temporary" in Espanol?
I think 20 years is temporary enough - adios, amigos.
