Honduras

Honduras has, for example, expressed its concerns about U.S. deportations of Hondurans, but this issue has been tempered by the extension of Temporary Protected Status for those Hondurans who entered the United States prior to December 30, 1998. This status was provided in recognition of the special circumstances of Honduras following the Hurricane Mitch disaster in October 1998 and was recently extended through July 2001. (references)
