The "Protect Vulnerable Immigrant Youth Act," a bill that has garnered support from the U.S. bishops conference. This legislation aims to accelerate the visa process for vulnerable immigrant children, while also potentially freeing up more visas for foreign-born religious workers. Bishop Mark Seitz of El Paso, the USCCB migration chair, highlights the importance of this bill in upholding the right to religious exercise and empowering young immigrants to reach their full potential in the United States. The bill focuses on eligible youth with Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, who have faced challenges of abuse, abandonment, or neglect and cannot be reunited with their parents in their home country. Join us to learn more about this critical legislation and its impact on the lives of immigrant children.
