Maine-based Haiti nonprofit speaks out against new U.S. travel ban

Haiti is one of the countries now banned from travel to the United States.

The Maine-based nonprofit, Konbit Sante, which focuses on health partnerships in Haiti, has expressed strong opposition to the new U.S. travel ban announced by the Biden administration. The ban, effective from May 12, 2023, targets individuals from Haiti, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, aiming to curb illegal immigration. Konbit Sante's Executive Director, Nayla Calidonio, criticized the policy as "inhumane" and detrimental to families and communities, emphasizing that it would hinder the organization's efforts to support healthcare in Haiti. The nonprofit is calling for more humane immigration policies and continues to advocate for the rights and well-being of Haitians amidst ongoing challenges in their home country.
