We are proud of this process that has been implemented. We need to pass this bill to make sure that when children come into this country they come in as citizens--just as American citizens give birth to a child overseas. they become automatic citizens. They dont need the extra step of a visa. In addition to setting up a certification process for agencies that will be very helpful and effective as we again try to eliminate barriers to adoption and give parents a central agency which is required under this treaty. which all the countries now in the world are moving to. and while it respects our States roles and respects the role of adoption agencies. it provides a central place where this important work can take place and have a focus. That is basically what it does.
