2021/03/10 03:44 MIAMI (AP) Maria Ortiz left Venezuela almost four years ago when she realized her job opportunities were nonexistent. Freshly graduated from college with a degree in petroleum engineering, she boarded a plane and traded her dream of a professional career for a better quality of life in the U.S. Ortiz has since worked in restaurant kitchens in Maryland, earning enough to raise her 2-year-old daughter and make ends meet even during the pandemic. But their life may change drastically this year after the decision of President Joe Biden’s administration to offer temporary legal residency to several hundred thousand Venezuelans who fled their country’s humanitarian crisis.
