Queers and Immigration

Thank you for posting this Greyson.

I've been watching it closely as well.

Sometimes it's hard for me to believe it was 15+years ago that I started my own battle with and tangled path through the minefield that is queer immigration.

I have been, again, blown away by the President's inclusion of us in his proposed reform policy and in his public words.

I have also been overwhelmed by the vitriol backlash of the GOP aimed directly at Bi-National Queer families. And their outright stated refusal to see us included in any reform.

This spring is shaping up to a helluva a time for Queer Rights.

There is a lot on the line.

And I'm anxious about it.
