The Trump administration's recent decision to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Venezuelans poses a significant risk to over 505,400 beneficiaries residing in the U.S. This federal program, which Biden initially expanded in March 2021, provides temporary deportation protections for individuals from countries in distress. The impending changes could lead to potential deportations, impacting numerous Venezuelans who sought refuge from their country's turmoil. This policy shift could further complicate the immigration landscape, especially for communities in South Florida that have celebrated the past support extended to Venezuelan migrants.
The Trump administration's decision to revoke the recent extension of Temporary Protected Status granted to Venezuelans by former President Joe Biden could affect hundreds of thousands living and working in the United States, setting the stage for possible deportations.
The Biden administration first designated Venezuela for Temporary Protected Status in March 2021, a decision that was widely celebrated in South Florida.
To qualify for TPS, people must have been in the United States before a certain cutoff date that Homeland Security sets.
There are 505,400 approved beneficiaries of TPS under the Venezuela designation, according to the recent actions.
