  Hi Folks, Out4Immigration has been organizing a weekly letter writing campaign to get more support for Equal Immigration Rights for LGBT Couples. Each week, we urged actions on 5 representative in congress (senate and house) to get them to consider sponsoring the Uniting American Families Act as well as an INCLUSIVE Comprehensive Immigration Reform (ie, one that includes LGBT Families) You can find all of the recent actions on change.org: http://www.change.org/ideas/actions/equal_immigration_rights_for_same_sex_binational_couples Some actions of particular importance that I want to emphasize on: Rep Gutierrez’s introduced a CIR bill in December that excluded LGBT Families and we would like to urge you to express your disappointment to his office as well as demand that we be included in the final bill. The action can be found here: http://www.change.org/ideas/2008/view_action/please_tell_rep_gutierrez_that_lgbt_families_must_be_included_in_cir_asap Sen Schumer as well as Rep Lofgren will be introducing their version of Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill by the end of January. We need to also keep the pressure up to make sure that both the house and senate version of CIR is an inclusive bill that includes LGBT Families. We believe NOBODY should be left out of immigration reform! The specific action to Sen Schumer as well as Rep Lofgren can be found here: http://www.change.org/ideas/2008/view_action/urge_sen_schumer_and_rep_lofgren_to_include_lgbt_families_in_their_comprehensive_immigration_bill Please join our action by clicking through every week, to ensure that we have an INCLUSIVE Comprehensive Immigration Reform. Thank you, Amos Lim http://www.change.org/ideas/actions/equal_immigration_rights_for_same_sex_binational_couples
