More than 600,000 Venezuelans in the US lose temporary protection status and face a higher risk of deportation
The administration of the president of the United States, Donald Trump (Republican), revoked on Tuesday (28.jan.2025) the extent of deportation protections that former President Joe Biden (Democrat) granted more than 600,000 Venezuelans living in the US. The information is from .
The decision to annul 18 -month length of (Acronym in English for, temporary protection status) took place by the Secretary of Internal Security, Kristi Noem. A MEdida endangers the permanence of these immigrants, who now face the risk of deportation in the coming months.
No Noem’s decision reverses a policy that offered protection to Venezuelans who did not intend to return to their country because of the economic crisis and political repression of Nicolás Maduro’s government. In addition to protection, they could receive work permits until at least 2026.
Now the Venezuelans who received TPS in 2021 will maintain their protections by September, while those who received permission by 2023 will have them until April.
