- The ban resulted from ongoing insecurity and gang violence in Haiti amid a humanitarian crisis, with 80 percent of Port-au-Prince controlled by armed groups.
- The ban has deeply affected Haitian expats, especially about 15,000 Haitians living in Springfield, Ohio, who must leave by August 3 following a recent court ruling removing their temporary protected status.
