Why is there no movement on #VenezuelaTPS? Why hasn't the new administration done this incredibly obvious and simple political lay-up?
Surely, there can be no doubt that #Venezuela presents conditions of violence, strife, chaos and unrest sufficient for #TPS.
@POTUS campaigned on a promise of TPS for #Venezuelans. It was a clear distinction between Biden's approach and Trump's big stick and nothing else approach. But maybe Venezuelans did not believe that Biden would follow through. He was part of the Obama administration, after all.
Trump, on his way out, offered #DEDVenezuela which is a lesser form of protection than #TPS. So far, @USCIS has not provided a way for people eligible for DED to seek work permits.
I don't know why @POTUS has not done #TPS for #Venezuela. It is smart politics, good policy and the right thing to do. With Florida routinely up for grabs, why wouldn't Biden be trying to lure even a small percentage of the Latin vote that went for Trump?
It's time. Designate #Venezuela for #TPS.
