Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would make Blanca Martinez eligible for an immigrant visa or for lawful permanent resident status (a green card), setting aside the usual yearly visa limits. It would bar her removal or denial of admission based on grounds already in federal immigration records as of the bill's enactment, and would require the Secretary of Homeland Security to cancel any existing removal order against her on those grounds. She would have to apply and pay fees within 2 years of enactment. Once she receives a visa or permanent residence, one visa would be subtracted from the number available to people from her birth country, and her parents and siblings would not gain any immigration benefit through her.
