Christian German homeschooling family living in US may be deported by Biden

A petition urging the Biden administration to allow the Romeike family to stay in the United States was recently started by the Homeschool Legal Defense Association.

A homeschooling family from Germany may be deported under the Biden administration despite moving to the United States nearly 15 years ago.

As reported by LifeSite in 2010, the nine-member Romeike family sought refuge in America due to their native country’s strict rules against parents educating their children within the confines of their own home. They were granted asylum in the U.S. by a Memphis judge at the time.

In Germany, the Romeikes had been subjected to criminal prosecution for simply raising their children outside the state-approved school system. In Bissingen, district of Ludwigsburg, Baden-Württemberg, they faced exorbitant fines, forcible removal of their children, and possible imprisonment.
