US representatives call on Bush to let Venezuelans stay
Tagged: VenezuelaPosted on: March 27th, 2007“Five U.S. representatives are calling on the federal government to provide temporary legal status to Venezuelans who may be in the country illegally for what they contend is a recent increase in political persecutions in the South American country.
U.S. Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart, R-Fla., Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., Mario Diaz-Balart R-Fla., Connie Mack R-Fla. and Jerry Weller, R-Ill., sent a letter Monday to President Bush asking him to order the Department of Homeland Security to temporarily stop deporting Venezuelans.”
