The SECURE Act was recently reintroduced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD), and Chris Van Hollen (D-MD). The act is a sensible way of giving clarity and peace of mind to TPS recipients whose lives in the United States are in limbo, with comprehensive immigration reform yet to be achieved. Senate Republicans should join them as co-sponsors to this bill. Among the many whose lives would benefit from this legislation are over 300,000 Venezuelans who qualify for TPS. Most of them live in Florida, which is why Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott should take the lead in co-sponsoring this bill on behalf of their Republican colleagues.
