What this bill would do
This bill, known as the "Kerrie Orozco First Responders Family Support Act," proposes changes to the Immigration and Nationality Act. It aims to establish a naturalization process for the immediate relatives of public safety officers who die due to their employment. Specifically, it would allow surviving spouses, children, or parents of a deceased U.S. citizen citizen to become naturalized. The bill removes the requirements for prior residence or specified physical presence in the United States for these individuals. This applies if the death resulted from injury or disease incurred in or aggravated by employment as a public safety officer.
