Change U.S. Policy to Save North Korean Refugee Children in China

This petition was published by Jina Nam on Jun 12, 2002

We are concerned U.S. citizens who are dismayed by official U.S. policy (e.g. the State Department's refusal to accept asylum requests at U.S. Embassies that makes it virtually impossible for North Korean refugees, in particular the poor defenseless orphan children, who are living in hiding and fear in China, to seek asylum and resettlement in the U.S. These children have no one to protect them from the mean streets where they are under constant threat of hunger, abuse, exploitation, arrest and repatriation. We cannot sit idly by and allow this travesty to continue. We must make our country available as a safe haven for these children and save their precious lives. Therefore we call upon you to take immediate steps to ease these policy barriers so that we can bring these children to our shore where they can be nourished, nurtured and saved.
