Chairman ROMANO L. MAZZOLI. and four other members of the Judiciary Subcommittee on International Law. Immigration. and Refugees. wrote to the State Department urging it to take a similar action. "We strongly urge you." wrote the subcommittee members "to consider issuing a directive instructing consular officers to take special cognizance of the fact that the existence of an immigrant petition on file need not exclude favorable consideration of an application for a visitors visa coming from the spouse or child of a permanent resident." During the Presidential campaign. America heard much about the importance of the intact nuclear family. By joining me in remedying this unfortunate situation. we can afford families separated by an unfortunate administrative delay a better chance to remain together as a family unit.
