WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Bob Menendez appeared today on “CBS This Morning” with Nina Saria, the New Jersey mother who had once found a kidney donor on Craigslist only to have that lifesaving surgery cancelled at the last minute. After being denied a travel visa several times by the U.S. State Department, Sen. Menendez was able to help secure humanitarian parole through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to allow Ms. Saria’s mother to travel to the U.S. to donate her kidney and save her daughter’s life.
