Bill > HR1053

This bill aims to help families of Filipino World War II veterans by creating an exemption to the standard immigrant visa numerical limitations. Specifically, the bill would allow children of Filipino veterans who were naturalized under specific historical provisions related to wartime service to immigrate to the United States without being constrained by the typical annual visa caps. These naturalization provisions include section 405 of the Immigration Act of 1990 and a section of the Second War Powers Act of 1942, which provided pathways to U.S. citizenship for Filipino veterans who served alongside American forces during World War II. By exempting these children from standard visa limits, the bill seeks to facilitate family reunification for descendants of Filipino veterans who made significant contributions to the United States military during a critical period of global conflict. The bill would modify existing immigration law to create this special immigration category, making it easier for these family members to immigrate to the United States.
