I’m glad to see this. From Stars and Stripes:
WASHINGTON — A pair of House lawmakers introduced a bill on Thursday that would expedite the visa process for Afghan military translators, amid growing calls from Congress for the Biden administration to act quickly to shuttle allies out of the country ahead of the withdrawal of U.S. forces.
The bill from Reps. Jason Crow, D-Colo., and Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, would allow applicants to the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa program to forgo a medical examination, which can cost thousands of dollars.
It’s welcome and long overdue.
Yes. I won’t insult anyone’s intelligence by citing multiple reasons this is the right move.
Now let’s hope Susan Rice, er, Joe Biden see it the same way.
