In a recent interview with TV Venezuela, Senator Scott discussed the ongoing calls for the United States to use naval assets that would block the flow of oil shipped from Venezuela to Cuba.

“There’s no way it was gonna pass this week."

By a vote of 268-154, the U.S. House of Representatives has failed to pass Rep. Darren Soto’s Venezuela TPS Act (H.R. 459), a bill that would have given Venezuelan nationals Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

During a visit to Cape Canaveral, Florida to hold a “small business field hearing” with Sen. Rick Scott (R), U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R) announced that he has introduced a bill that would “designate” Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for those Haitians currently residing in the U.S., just if they are eligible to receive the designation.

The situation in Venezuela is dire, and has been for quite some time. Dictator Nicolas Maduro has had his boot firmly planted on the necks of the Venezuelan people, and there hasn’t been much the U.S. or any other free nation, have been able to do about it.
