Grandmothers press Elian case in media capital visit
The grandmothers traveled to Washington to meet Attorney General Janet Reno to press for Elian Gonzalez to stay in the United States. They argued the boy was born in Cuba and should not be made an American citizen, while Miami relatives say he wishes to remain in the United States. A custody bill by Sen. Connie Mack aims to clarify citizenship status, with court decisions to determine custody rather than immigration.
