In the meantime, a bipartisan group of representatives and senators have introduced a bill to provide Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for eligible Venezuelans. TPS is similar to DED but is granted either by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or the Congress through legislation. A grant through legislation would provide a more secure benefit for the eligible Venezuelans. In addition, at this time, the Biden-Harris Administration has introduced the U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 which, if passed, could provide a path to citizenship for TPS beneficiaries.
