"According to the Congressional Research Service, an estimated 195,000 Salvadorans currently have TPS status, as do 57,000 Hondurans, and 2,550 Nicaraguans. Many aliens who initially had TPS have subsequently obtained immigrant status, and some have even become citizens, creating a constituency for their fellow nationals. Further, over the course of decades, aliens with TPS have established business and personal relationships within their communities, and many have had children who are United States citizens. As those relationships and children have grown, aliens with long-term TPS have gained political power in this country, notwithstanding the fact that they are not eligible to vote."
