The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and organizations funded by left-wing billionaire George Soros are bankrolling a plan to provide temporary amnesty to Venezuela’s population.
Last week, the Democrat-controlled House passed a measure to create a Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program for Venezuela’s population — allowing nationals who are already in the U.S. to remain and incentivizing more to migrate. Thirty-nine House Republicans joined every Democrat to support the legislation, including:
- Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE)
- Rep. Michael Bost (R-IL)
- Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK)
- Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX)
- Rep. John Curtis (R-UT)
- Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL)
- Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI)
- Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA)
- Rep. Jeff Fortenberry (R-NE)
- Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI)
- Rep. Anthony Gonzalez (R-OH)
- Rep. Tom Graves (R-GA)
- Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO)
- Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA)
- Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA)
- Rep. French Hill (R-AR)
- Rep. Will Hurd (R-TX)
- Rep. David Joyce (R-OH)
- Rep. John Katko (R-NY)
- Rep. Peter King (R-NY)
- Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL)
- Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL)
- Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX)
- Rep. Tom Reed (R-NY)
- Rep. Cathy McMorris-Rodgers (R-WA)
- Rep. Francis Rooney (R-FL)
- Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA)
- Rep. John Shimkus (R-IL)
- Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ)
- Rep. Ross Spano (R-FL)
- Rep. Elise Stefancik (R-NY)
- Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI)
- Rep. Steve Stivers (R-OH)
- Rep. Glenn Thompson (R-PA)
- Rep. Michael Waltz (R-FL)
- Rep. Steve Womack (R-AR)
- Rep. Rod Woodall (R-GA)
- Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL)
- Rep. Don Young (R-AK)
The Chamber of Commerce, the country’s largest big business group, and Soros-funded organizations like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and Amnesty International USA, Inc. were the primary lobbyists pushing House Republicans to join Democrats in creating TPS for Venezuelans.
