Kevin Cramer and Amy Klobuchar, along with U.S. Reps. Robert Aderholt and Danny Davis, <a href=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/9f9236afbb94f9a47d3dcb706\/files\/3fc69d8d-a9fb-96f1-ca3f-77d629d7085f\/CCA_Co_Chairs_Letter_to_State_Dept_re_Adoption_Visas.pdf\">asked the Department of State<\/a> to restore a \u201ccategorical exemption for adoption visas,\u201d one that was suspended in December 2025 amid government travel restrictions on certain countries.<\/p>\n<p>The suspension of the visas \u201chas introduced uncertainty for children and American parents who have waited years for their adoptions to be completed and were preparing to bring their children home,\u201d the lawmakers said.<\/p>\n<p>The letter cited Department of State <a href=\"https:\/\/fam.state.gov\/fam\/07fam\/07fam1790.html\">guidance from 2025<\/a> that acknowledged that adoption \u201cinvolves children in need \u2014 some in urgent need \u2014 of a loving, permanent home and family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In that guidance the State Department acknowledged the need to \u201cvigorously engage at both the policy and case levels to protect the interests of all parties involved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe strongly urge you to advocate for the restoration of the categorical exemption for adoption visas,\u201d the lawmakers said, calling on the department to \u201cmove expeditiously to address this situation to ensure these children are united with their adoptive parents.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Difficulty of international adoption changes with governments<\/h2>\n<p>Katie Dillon, a spokeswoman for Commonwealth Catholic Charities in Virginia, said international adoptions \u201ctypically follow clear, predictable steps,\u201d though she said the process is \u201clengthy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Like many Catholic charity groups, Commonwealth Catholic Charities offers adoptive families a variety of resources and services to facilitate in both domestic and international adoptions. Dillon said the Virginia group \u201cacts as the home study provider and post-placement agency\u201d for families seeking to adopt from other countries.<\/p>\n<p>Such adoptions \u201ccan be\u00a0a difficult process\u00a0that ebbs and flows with global policy shifts,\u201d she said. \u201cIt can be a challenging process for families to navigate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFamilies interested in international adoption work with an in-state agency like Commonwealth Catholic Charities to complete their home study and an international agency to help with the placement of the child,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Child placement agencies must be accredited by the Hague Adoption Convention of 1993, an international accord that established protections for children in international adoptions. Such agencies \u201chave programs in certain countries to legally\u00a0assist\u00a0a family in the adoption of a child from that country,\u201d Dillon said.<\/p>\n<p>Though there are numerous resources that prospective adoptive families can utilize to help them in their journey, Dillon said international adoption \u201cis often\u00a0a long process\u00a0that can take upwards of three or four years.\u201d Some countries can require parents to reside in the country in question for anywhere from several months to a year, she said.<\/p>\n<p>Amid the uncertainty at the federal level, Dillon stressed that the difficult process is at times upended by elections in which government rules can shift without warning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParents\u00a0who\u00a0are considering international adoption\u00a0should be aware that\u00a0adoption policies can change\u00a0abruptly with\u00a0changes in government leadership,\u201d she said. \u201cThere\u00a0are\u00a0no\u00a0guarantees.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lawmakers are urging the Trump administration to offer government exceptions for international adoption visas so that children can be united with their adoptive families and \u201cwelcomed into safe and stable homes.\u201d U.S. Sens.
