“I’m a U.S. citizen that’s basically stranded outside of the country because my wife [a non-U.S. citizen] is being refused an immigration visa.”
An American citizen is stuck in Japan because his non-citizen wife can’t enter the U.S. without showing proof of taking the COVID-19 jab.
Kion, a U.S. citizen who’s been in Japan for over 15 years, reached out to activist TexasLindsay to tell his story.
Kion met his wife while studying abroad at a language school in Japan around 2009. “We’ve been married for about 15 years,” he said, “and our visa in Japan runs out next year.”
A U.S. Citizen living abroad reached out & asked for help to shine a light on what’s preventing him from legally returning to the U.S. from Japan with his beautiful little family.
He’s not alone—this problem is impacting U.S. Citizens & their families around the world.

“I’m a U.S. citizen that’s basically stranded outside of the country because my wife [a non-U.S. citizen] is being refused an immigration visa,” he said, explaining that they had applied “about 3 years ago, at the start of the pandemic hoping the madness would be over by the time we got the immigration visa.”
“I thought that since we were moving back, I should look for jobs in the states, and never expected to be stuck this long,” he added.
Turns out the reason Kion’s wife’s visa is being denied is due to the Biden DHS and CDC’s immigration requirement for LEGAL immigrants to show proof a COVID-19 injection within the last 12 months.
6) The reason Kion’s his wife’s Visa is being denied is due to @DHSgov @CDCgov, @CDCDirector’s immigration requirement for LEGAL immigrants to show proof a C-19 shot within the last 12 mos. despite the known risks of harm, as well as knowing its inability to prevent disease. pic.twitter.com/lX20tGuTsH

And this despite the experimental shot’s substantial known health risks and its inability to prevent transmission.
8) In Jan. 2023, the CDC Dir. of Immunization Safety admitted C-19 shots can cause “debilitating illnesses” & said “we are aware of these reports of people experiencing long-lasting health problems following Covid vaccination”
Yet, DHS & CDC still forces it on LEGAL immigrants. pic.twitter.com/4TnX4uCvw5

“The rules are as I understand it. All applicants 6 months or older must get [a Covid-19 shot]. Pregnancy is not an exemption. Flat out refusal of the jab makes you ‘inadmissible’ and your [application] goes in the trash,” said Kion, who also has a 6-year-old daughter.
“The only way that I know of to get around the requirement is a religious/moral exemption where you have to ask USCIS for special permission not to get the jab. Which USCIS can turn down completely [depending on] the officer looking at the waiver.”
The vaccine requirement policy is even more egregious given the unprecedented amount of foreign nationals entering the U.S. illegally who don’t have to divulge their vaccination status.
The policy doesn’t even apply to tourists visiting the U.S. — but why only those with a spouse and children who have a U.S. citizenship?
This unjust vaccine gatekeeping is happening to thousands of families worldwide.
But there is a solution.
It happens Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) last July had introduced HR-4726, a bill that would nullify this asinine COVID-19 vaccine restriction.
16) In order to help remedy this for Kion & his family and the many others impacted—we the people need to call on Congress to pass HR-4726, a bill @RepThomasMassie introduced back in July 2023 that’s now likely sitting on a shelf somewhere.https://t.co/kCzc4dY9eb pic.twitter.com/RSephxFfgK

The Biden administration’s nonsensical COVID-19 vaccine requirement for legal immigrants must be immediately lifted, especially given the COVID national emergency measures ended last year and the jab’s well-documented ineffectiveness and health hazards.
