TV coverage on Uniting American Families Act



Thanks goes to Paul and Dan for sharing their story with the filippino television station. Why would the government not allow 2 person in love to stay together? Why would the government intentionally break up couples just because they are gay lesbian bisexual or transgender and one of them just happened to be a foreigner? This is just blatant discrimination that a heterosexual american can sponsor his/her foreign born partner for a green card but a gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender american cannot sponsor his/her foreign born partner for a green card.

We need to pass the Uniting American Families Act to address this inequality! The bill has just been introduced in the house (HR1024) with 80 cosponsor and in the senate (S424) with 14 cosponsor. Please call your senators and representative and urge them to sponsor this bill!!
