There are thousands and thousands of families that are going to be affected by this,” said Yamilé Pérez, a Venezuelan national who participated in the walk called by the Association of Naturalized Residents of Panama (Arena). Deputy Zulay Rodríguez, of the ruling Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD), presented on Aug. 10 the preliminary bill 075 to repeal executive decree 249 that establishes the procedure and requirements for permanent residence.
