Venezuelans in the U.S. are facing a distressing reality after the U.S. Supreme Court revoked Temporary Protected Status (TPS), impacting around 350,000 people. This decision comes amidst ongoing legal disputes originating from Trump's administrationâs move to terminate TPS for Venezuelans, who were granted this status due to severe humanitarian crises stemming from political and economic disruptions under the Maduro regime. For many, including Cecilia Gonzalez Herrera, the fear of deportation looms, as their work permits are directly linked to TPS, coming at an incredibly vulnerable time for those still connected to Venezuela.
Cecilia Gonzalez Herrera emphasized that her family fled Venezuela due to political persecution, highlighting the regimeâs hostility towards dissent and the danger facing those opposed to Maduro.
Adelys Ferro, executive director of the Venezuelan-American Caucus, stated the immediate consequences of the Supreme Court's decision may lead to expired work permits, worsening lives for affected Venezuelans.
