THE CHILD CITIZEN PROTECTION ACT, HR 1176*
Deportation destroys families and leaves U.S. citizen children without parents.
Over 1 in 10 families are mixed status: at least 1 parent is a non-citizen, and 1 child a citizen.
We now have a vehicle to help protect our U.S. citizen children from the devastating effects of deportation: THE CHILD CITIZEN PROTECTION ACT (HR 1176); introduced by Congressman Jose Serrano (D-NY). The bill would allow an immigration judge to consider the best interest of U.S. citizen children before deporting their parent. Please join us and invite others to discuss next steps and plan actions both locally and nationally to promote this vital legislation. Information about the bill is available at www.thomas.loc.gov, search HR 1176.
