What this bill would do
This bill is introduced for the relief of Juana Maria Flores. It aims to make her eligible for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status to lawful permanent resident. The legislation provides for the waiver of certain grounds that could otherwise lead to her removal or denial of admission.

To qualify, the application and fees must be filed within two years of the Act's enactment. Finally, the bill requires a reduction in the number of available immigrant visas for her country of birth to account for her status.
