THE HILL
Summary
The author argues that U.S. immigration law fails to address the needs of stateless people, using their own experience of becoming stateless after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Without citizenship or valid identification, many stateless people face major obstacles in daily life, including difficulty obtaining jobs, driver's licenses, bank accounts, housing, or travel documents. Some also face prolonged immigration detention because no country will accept them.

Although many stateless individuals have lived in the United States for years and built their lives there, they remain in legal uncertainty. The author urges Congress to pass the Stateless Protection Act, which would establish a formal process for recognizing stateless people, provide legal identification, work authorization, travel documents, and protection from detention and deportation. The article also notes that the U.S. has not joined key U.N. treaties on statelessness and argues that the legislation would close a major gap in the country's immigration system.
