Please consider signing this peition: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/immediate-action-requested-romeikes%E2%80%94grant-permanent-legal-status-persecuted-german-homeschool-family/06vqtgCp?m=t
It
is in regards to a homeschool family from Germany who have been
permitted to stay, but now the Obama administration will be deporting
them soon. Germany is a country that forbids its population to
homeschool and they would likely have their children removed from them
if they return and continue to homeschool - which is why they came to
the US in the first place. You can read more about them here: http://www.hslda.org/courtreport/V26N2/V26N201.asp
It
should be noted that they were granted the right to stay by the court
process in the US. However, Obama's administration intervened single
handedly through ICE in order to deport this family back to Germany specifically stating, "ICE argues that the U.S. law recognizes
the “broad power of the state to prohibit or regulate homeschooling,”
and that this, among other things, should disqualify the granting of
asylum. ICE writes that Germany’s harsh treatment of homeschoolers is
merely prosecution, rather than persecution. ICE lawyers write that
“[e]ven were such fear[s] objectively reasonable, these sanctions would
only amount to prosecution.”"
Yeah - I'm really not a fan of this administration. Please help this family and sign the petition. Here are the specific directions if you get confused.
