For example. although I was pleased to be able to help the Brock family from Owensboro. KY. with the return of one of their adopted sons last Christmas. their other son still remains in the DRC. To make matters worse. many of these families have been financially burdened by the cost of continually renewing their childrens visas while they wait for the day the DRC decides to lift the suspension. In an attempt to help these families. the Adoptive Family Relief Act will provide meaningful financial relief by granting the State Department the authority to waive the fees for multiple visa renewals in this and other extraordinary adoption circumstances. The bill builds on Congresss bipartisan efforts on this adoption issue. including a provision in this years congressional budget resolution to encourage a solution to the stalemate in the DRC. I strongly urge the DRC Government to resolve this matter.
