WASHINGTON -- House Democrats are trying to broaden support for immigration reform by reaching out to the gay and lesbian community with a provision in immigration legislation that would allow gay and lesbian Americans to bring foreign partners home to the United States.
Under current law, American citizens and other legal permanent residents can get a green card or immigrant visa for a spouse or immediate family members living abroad. However, the same rights do not extend to same-sex couples living in the country.
During a news conference on Capitol Hill Thursday, Democratic Reps. Jerrold Nadler of New York, Luis Gutierrez of Illinois and Mike Honda of California, among others, urged Congress to pass the Uniting American Families Act as part of a comprehensive immigration reform package this year.

“same-sex, binational couples” Translates from liberal BS speak to:
Foreign queers
Dems, supporting lawbreakers and perversions.
What a bunch of screwed up people.
“you mean like we stopped the healthcare bill? stimulus? financial reg?”
Well, we did stop the healthcare bill in 1993 - but then again, we had 43 Senators (as opposed to 40). Big difference when people are deciding whether or not to “teach the Republicans a lesson”. Back then, we kept enough Senate Republicans around to stop Hillary.
For Stimulus - same thing in 1993...we STOPPED IT COLD back then. Then again we had 43 Senators (as opposed to 40). Big difference when people are deciding whether or not to “teach the Republicans a lesson”.
For Financial Regulation - kinda sucks to teach the Republicans such a lesson that the only hope was that the RINOs would hold. (fat chance)
Perhaps in the future we think a bit harder about “teaching the Republicans a lesson” when it comes to House and Senate elections. Regardless of McCain being at the top of the ticket, it was CRIMINAL of us to give the RINOs the power to team with the Dems to IMPOSE this crap on the country.
Sadly, you’re right. Maybe, if we can get enough people in the House in November, we’ll have some chance of stopping future things. But I’m afraid binational Barry is going to get whatever he wants until then, and by November we’re going to have an immigration law that will make our hair stand on end. And I think we can expect a lot of other agendas to be stuck in with it; that seems to be his method.
yep - all water under the bridge.
I think they should be inserted into Barmey Fwanks.
“yep - all water under the bridge.”
No, pretty much the results of our own (collective) doing...
That’s how things work - give the Dems uncontested power, and they will take advantage of that EVERY TIME.
Good ONE !!
NOTHING surprises me anymore !!
There is No More SHOCK left in me !!
Only Obama & the Democrats can think up this CRAP in search of votes ....they are truly desperate !!
I think it’s past time to march on Washington and physically drag these socialists into the streets and toss them out. I don’t think we can wait until November to change it through elections because by then it WILL BE TOO LATE!
Give the Republicans uncontested power and they hand the baton back to the dimocrats just so they can undo everything the Republicans did.
I know, I'm dating myself....
Just say “No” to Homosexual Activity and all the people who support it.
This won’t be suicide for them if they get enough voters on the rolls to keep them in power. If this illegal immigration bill passes they will have enough votes to keep them in power until they absolutely destroy the country, or they will incur the wrath of a vengeful God who will then destroy the country. Either way, we lose.
You wanted “Change” America.....
Yes I think it would actually be a winning argument if we had a real honest debate. Our side would make people see that a vote for a Democrat in any way shape or form, is a vote for infanticide, gay marriage and all the trimmings.
The recent talk of teaching children about different sexual positions etc as early as kindergarten through 5th grade, also teaching young children that attraction to the same sex is okydoky etc.
These things are offensive to many people, we need to convince them that their grand parents would roll over in their graves if they knew their children would support such characters as today's Democrats.
Clearly satan at work
Every day another outrage from these bozos
they have the corrupt media covering for them so they will try to push their far left sick agenda as much as they can.
Once these communists, socialists etc move out then I hope an investigation will be done into how the corrupt media worked with these people
Something that Democrats are good at.
