Revisit Public Law 97-359

To:  U.S. Congress

Congress of The United States of America

The 26th anniversary of a law that discriminates against a group that rightfully should be American citizens is approaching. (Public Law 97-359 Act of 10/22/82)

Is a child fathered by a U.S. citizen from Japan or The Philippines any less deserving of U.S. citizenship than a child fathered by a U. S. citizen in Thailand, Vietnam, Korea, Laos or Cambodia?
The purpose of this petition is to ask Congress to revisit Public Law 97-359 Act of 10/22/82.


Demands of the petition:

1. That Congress draft legislation to include Amerasians from Japan and The Philippines as beneficiaries of Public Law 97-359 Act of 10/22/82.
2. Whereas American servicemen are still deployed to these countries, that there be no fixed time frame.
3. No child fathered by a United States citizen should be denied equal
treatment under the laws of this country.
