NOTICE TO THE PRESS
The President has signed S. 223 - Relief of Angela Garza and her son Manuel
Aguilar. This bill grants permanent resident status to the alien widow of a
U.S. citizen and her son.
The beneficiaries of the bill, 52-year-old Mrs. Angela Garza and her 13-year-
old son Manuel Aguilar (also known as Manuel Garza), who are natives and
citizens of Mexico, entered the United States on February 21, 1972, on non-
immigrant visitors visas permitting them to remain in the country for up to
six months. On April 23, 1972, Mrs. Garza married the late Mr. Trinidad
Garza, a U.S. citizen, and she and her son resided with him in St. Paul,
Minnesota until his death on April 21, 1973.
The bill will restore immediate relative status under the Immigration and
Nationality Act to the beneficiaries, exempt them from the routine procedures
for granting immigrant status, and, thus, grant them permanent residence.
