Activists Press for Homosexual 'Rights' to Be Included in Comprehensive Immigration Reform

(CNSNews.com) – Two amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act introduced in the House of Representatives’ current session would add language allowing “permanent partners” to sponsor their foreign-born "spouses" to become naturalized citizens.
 
At a Capitol Hill press conference held Friday by the Asian Pacific Legal Center, a panel expressed support for the legislation as part of its campaign to include family reunification reforms in federal immigration legislation, including for homosexual couples and their children.
 
“While many groups face enormous obstacles with the backlogs for family-sponsored immigrants, one group has seen its families shut out completely,” said a report released by the legal center in September 2008 and distributed at the conference states.
 
“Same-sex couples and their children have no standing in U.S. immigration law, and as a result many committed bi-national couples in the U.S. and their families … are forced to separate or live in constant fear of separation,” report added.

Remember when we were told there was no agenda to redefine marriage?    Riiiiiiight.
