Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025
Rep. William R. Keating (D-MA-9) & bipartisan co-sponsors
Bill Summary
Grants lawful permanent residency to Ukrainians who were paroled into the U.S. after February 2014 and have maintained continuous presence, protecting hundreds of thousands from deportation to an active war zone. This is the single most important piece of legislation for the Ukrainian community and all who support them.
Why It Matters
Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP]. I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do. Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104? Thank you.

Bill Analysis
H.R. 3104 - the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025 - introduced by Rep. William Keating (D-MA-9) with bipartisan cosponsors including Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), would allow Ukrainian nationals currently in the U.S. on parole or Temporary Protected Status to apply for lawful permanent residence. Eligibility requires passing security and law enforcement background checks, continuous presence since at least February 2014, and a DHS determination that adjustment is not contrary to national security. Approximately 240,000 Ukrainians currently in the U.S. could qualify.
Key Provisions
Streamlined Green Card Pathway
Directs DHS to adjust the status of eligible Ukrainian nationals to lawful permanent resident without requiring them to leave the U.S. and re-enter. Applicants must pass full background checks and meet admissibility standards, with national security waivers for grounds like public charge.
Eligibility: Parolees Since February 2014
Covers Ukrainians paroled into the U.S. after February 20, 2014 - the date of Russia's first invasion of Crimea - as well as their spouses and children. This captures both the 2014 and 2022 waves of displacement.
Security Vetting Requirements
Applicants must complete biometric screening, FBI background checks, and DHS security reviews. The bill explicitly bars adjustment for anyone with criminal convictions or national security concerns.
TPS Holder Inclusion
Ukrainians currently on Temporary Protected Status - which can be revoked by executive action - would gain access to a permanent status that cannot be terminated by a change in administration.
Why It Matters
About 240,000 Ukrainians are living in the U.S. right now on temporary statuses that can be revoked at any time. Many have been here for years, built businesses, enrolled children in school, and integrated into communities. TPS was designed to be temporary - but Ukraine is still at war. H.R. 3104 gives these people legal certainty without creating a new program: it uses existing immigration law, requires full security vetting, and has bipartisan support.
Advocacy Talking Points
- →240,000 Ukrainians in the U.S. face deportation risk if TPS is revoked - H.R. 3104 gives them a permanent, vetted status.
- →Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) is a cosponsor - this has Republican support. Ask your representative to join the bipartisan coalition.
- →Every applicant under H.R. 3104 must pass FBI and DHS background checks. This is not an amnesty - it's a security-vetted pathway.
- →Sending Ukrainians back to a country under active bombardment isn't a policy - it's a humanitarian crisis waiting to happen.
- →Ask your representative on the Judiciary Committee to schedule a markup of H.R. 3104.
