The
National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA) applauds the
reintroduction of the Reuniting Families Act by Representative Michael
Honda (D-CA). The bill attempts to alleviate visa backlogs, promote
expedited family reunification, and provide relief to the families of
Filipino American World War II veterans. The bill also brings much
needed updates to the family-based immigration system which has kept
many families apart for years, including disrupting the lives of many
Asian Pacific American families. It is a compelling reminder that the
United States should always uphold the core national values of family
and fairness in our immigration system.
