"By saying that it expects 100,000 green cards to go to waste, the administration is implying it would rather take the extreme step of violating the law that requires them to be issued." @David_J_Bier @DHSgov must take urgent action to prevent this.

For the first time, the House will vote on a bipartisan solution to permanently protect America's children from aging out of the legal immigration system. Keeping American raised and educated talent who wish to contribute is significant for our country and national security.

GREAT NEWS: My amendment to protect Documented Dreamers just advanced out of @RulesDemocrats with the NDAA and now heads to the floor for a vote. 200,000+ young people face the risk of deportation, and this amendment will prevent them from aging out of legal immigration status.

. @USCIS has made a common sense change that will prevent some children of long term visa holders from aging out. This is one of the many narrow changes we have advocated for, but more must be done, including passing bipartisan legislative solutions like America’s Children Act.

We updated how we calculate the age of child beneficiaries for immigrant visas under the Child Status Protection Act. This will prevent some child beneficiaries from aging out of child status & allow them to adjust status with their parents. More info at:

Another Documented Dreamer will need to self-deport due to a restrictive interpretation of CSPA by the administration. This student's particular situation is completely preventable through a simple policy change from @DHSgov , @USCISDirector . They must act now.

@PabloReports @POTUS @RepDeborahRoss @SenAlexPadilla @USCISDirector @SecMayorkas @ImproveTheDream My son's I-485 application to become LPR (Green Card) is denied. The reason is that we lived here legally since 2006 and my COB is India. We waited in the backlog since 2011

The biggest brain drain of the United States is caused by forcing talented people who are educated in the country to leave after completion of their studies, which includes thousands of young people who were also raised here. It is time to pass America’s Children Act.
