                    [Summary] => WASHINGTON — Under pressure from ethnic groups, an American lawmaker has withdrawn his measure to prevent US citizens from petitioning their siblings to join them in the United States.


Arizona Republican J.D. Hayworth filed the measure on Thursday as a last-minute amendment to House Bill 4437 entitled "Border Protection, Anti-terrorism and Illegal Immigration Control Act of 2005."


But in the face of a strong campaign by ethnic communities to defeat the measure, Hayworth recalled the contentious amendment.
