Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
This proposal aims to speed up family reunification for certain Filipino World War II veterans and their children. It would remove the normal annual caps on immigrant visas for the children of these veterans, so they don’t have to wait in long backlogs. The rule applies even if the veteran parent has passed away.
It covers children of veterans who became U.S. citizens because of their World War II service, including those who served honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces or in recognized Filipino units like the Philippine Army, Philippine Scouts, or guerrilla groups.
