Protecting our Guests During Hostilities in Ukraine Act

This bill aims to provide a formal "temporary Ukrainian guest status" for certain individuals who have sought refuge in the United States. Specifically, it applies to eligible aliens who were initially paroled into the U.S. under the Uniting for Ukraine parole process announced on April 21, 2022. Upon enactment, these individuals will be considered admitted to the U.S. in this special guest status, effective from their original parole date. A key benefit of this status is the authorization for employment in the United States for its entire duration. The temporary Ukrainian guest status is designed to expire 120 days after the Secretary of State officially determines that hostilities in Ukraine have ceased and conditions allow for the safe and reasonable return of civilians. However, the Secretary of Homeland Security retains the authority to revoke this status if an alien is found to meet certain grounds for removal under existing immigration law.
