A potential sponsor is anyone applying for custody of the child
What the document says“The term ``potential sponsor'' means an individual or entity who applies for the custody of an unaccompanied alien child.”
The section defines a potential sponsor as an individual or entity applying for custody of an unaccompanied alien child, and takes the meaning of unaccompanied alien child from section 462(g) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002.
What the document actually says“The term ``potential sponsor'' means an individual or entity who applies for the custody of an unaccompanied alien child.”
The term covers anyone who asks to take a child in. It may be a person or a body.
The child must be an unaccompanied alien child. An older law says what that means. That law is not indexed here.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
