There is nothing 'new' about it. I think this law was slipped in it's 1000 plus page bill. Anyway, as a foreigner you need to understand that the democrats at the federal level and in the press are clinically insane, this not a joke, they are really crazy and they are the ones who probably slipped it in.
Now President Bush is an honorable person who has tried keep his campeign promises, and it he is truly honorable he will not fight for this law in the court, considering it is a mistake that needs to be fixed.
I sent this to the White House:
Dear President Bush and VP Cheney,
I worked on your campaign in 2004 and contributed a lot of money. I have supported you every day on FreeRepublic.com and on left wing web sites. When Democrat males decried the Patriot Act and Wiretapping...I looked down on them as traitorous wimps.
Until last night.
Now I've learned that you signed a law (the IMBA) on January 6th that requires American males to fill out degrading paperwork (that Canadian men and other men in this world don't have to fill out) in order to be introduced to foreign women (like German women).
Do you have any idea that you signed such a law? If so, what were you thinking? It was stuck inside the socalled "Violence Against Women Act" after it failed to pass through Congress on its own.
Do you think that American males would not notice this? Would you have tried signing this law before the 2004 elections? I guarantee you that I would have personally pulled a million male voters away from you in 2004 if you had tried to sign this back then.
Please read the following thread at FreeRepublic to understand that almost all Republican males will agree with almost all Democrat males that this law is garbage and an outrage:

This is where Democrat males and Republican males completely agree.
Feminazis like Maria Cantwell say that this law is to protect future Anastasia Kings, referring to the Russian bride who was killed by her American husband. But do you have any idea how many American men have been killed in Russia and the Ukraine recently? More than 12,000 American men marry foreign women per year...so what? 2 murders in 10 years? And your point is?
So American men are now second class citizens in this world because Idle King murdered his wife Anastasia? Why did Maria Cantwell not ask, after the OJ murders, that black men fill out paperwork on their criminal backgrounds when they want to meet white women? I live in Germany: does my President have to make me a second class citizen over here by requiring German dating websites to make me, as an American, fill out degrading paperwork?
And when are you planning to sign a law that requires background checks for all American men who want to meet American women on Match.com and Yahoo?
Maybe soon a Bush Family member (your brother perhaps) will be president and sign a law requiring American men to carry approved dating cards telling women that they have no criminal records and no restraining order was ever placed on them. You are heading in that direction. Do you think you have male support on this?
And also: why did the law you signed exclude Match and Yahoo who also introduce American men to non-American women? I here lobbyists got the clause in the law that said only agencies that do the majority of their business with foreign women must comply with the law that subjects American men to government meddling in their personal lives.
Please be aware that this is the kind of issue than can trump the war on terror. You are either with us or against us on this issue.
Please tell me that you signed this law in order for it to go straight to the courts and be struck down. I guarantee you that this law will be openly broken on the day it comes into effect. Hopefully, the courts will take this on pronto. Please help this happen. Please fix your mistake.
