It Passed!

The Help Haiti Act reappeared in the House as quickly and mysteriously as it had previously disappeared, and adoptive parents of ~1,200 Haitian children are thankful for the immediate rights and protections it ensures upon finalized, legal adoption.

Additionally, the parents may apply upon finalization of adoption for citizenship for their children rather than having to wait for two years before such application.

Thank you, D.C.!  And thank you to all of you, friends and family, who pesterd legislators on our behalf.  Just waiting for Obama's signature  .  .  .
