Immigration judge: German anti-homeschooling policy
‘repellant to everything we believe as Americans’

Judge grants asylum to persecuted homeschooling family

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A U.S. immigration court Tuesday granted political asylum to a German homeschooling family, finding that the German government’s persecution of the family violated the family’s basic human rights.  The judge in the case reportedly called Germany’s anti-homeschooling policy “repellant to everything we believe as Americans” at a hearing held Thursday.  The Alliance Defense Fund provided funding to the Home School Legal Defense Association for the case.

Case Name:  In the Matter of Romeike
