On January 12, 2003 The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that "Waqar Hasan - the faithful son, the father of four, the one who paid all the bills - is gone; [he was killed in his convenience store four days after 9/11 by Mark Anthony Stroman]... Hasan's wife, Durreshahwar, and teenage daughters have lived in their white, one-story frame house in a New Jersey suburb for nearly a decade, their stay tied to his business visa... Now, his wife and children are without him... And, when their temporary work permits expire in three months, they could be deported... Congress soon will have an opportunity to intercede. Rep. Rush Holt (D., N.J.) plans to introduce a special bill later this month to make the Hasans permanent residents of the United States... Lawmakers have granted green cards to survivors of World Trade Center victims - the wife of a British stockbroker from Chatham, N.J., and the husband of a Russian computer specialist from New York."
