More details to this question:
I came to the US through marriage to my husband. I was adopted at a young age but after marriage, I have had very little contact with my adopted parents. I would like to get in touch with my birth mother and eventually bring her over to America. Is this possible? If so, how?

To do so, you would have to break the adoption with your adopted parents. To US immigration, you cannot claim to be the child of two sets of parents.
