Why this petition matters

Started by Oksana Dutchak

Dear US Government,

European countries accept Ukrainian refugees without any restrictions, but there is a limit of their hospitality, they cannot stretch their countries. Many US citizens with/without Ukrainian origin willing to help their relatives and friends from Ukraine at this very difficult time. Ukrainians are leaving their homes to protect children, and they did not have time to obtain US visa or even renew expired passport. Some children have never crossed a border, and they do not have a passport. Some of those refugees do not have any one in Europe, but they have relatives and/or friends in US. However, they cannot enter US without US visa.

Could you please simplify entrance for guardians with children? Please temporary remove existing restrictions for Ukrainian children. Most of those people who leave Ukraine are women with children. Please let them do bureaucratic paperwork inside of US after they sheltered their children.
