HR 9672 United States House · 118th Congress

For the relief of Gualterio Santos.

This bill grants permanent residency eligibility to a specific individual, Gualterio Santos, bypassing standard immigration rules. It waives grounds for removal or denial of admission, rescinds any existing removal orders against him, and requires his application for permanent residency to be filed within two years of the bill's enactment. The bill also requires the State Department to reduce the annual immigrant visa quota for Santos's country of origin by one visa and denies preferential immigration treatment to his relatives under the Immigration and Nationality Act. As a private bill for one person, it does not affect broader policy or other individuals.
