Bill > HR1763

This bill seeks to provide permanent resident status to Diego Montoya Bedoya by creating a special immigration provision that bypasses standard immigration procedures. Specifically, the bill allows Montoya Bedoya to be eligible for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status to lawful permanent residency, regardless of typical immigration restrictions. If he enters the United States within two years of the Act's enactment, he will be considered to have entered lawfully. The bill waives any grounds for removal or denial of admission that are in his current Department of Homeland Security or State Department records, and requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to rescind any existing removal orders. The bill also instructs the Secretary of State to reduce the total number of immigrant visas available to natives of Montoya Bedoya's birth country by one, and explicitly denies preferential immigration treatment to his natural parents, brothers, and sisters. A standard budgetary provisions section is included to determine the Act's financial impact according to the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010.
