If your Tails live USB was created by the Tails Installer, you can enable "persistence" on it. That will create an encrypted persistence partition on the same USB. Your imported PGP keys will automatically be saved and restored when you boot Tails if you enable persistence and have checked "GnuPG" in the persistence configuration tool.

If your live USB was not created by the Tails Installer, you can boot from it and use it to install Tails to a 2nd USB. You will be able to enable the persistent partition on this 2nd USB.
