Million Fiance/Spouse March on Washington

We need a website. We can then send out press releases to major newspapers/media outlets/senators.

We can put letters & pictures on it.

I'm in for whatever you do.

Cool, let me see what I come up with. It might take a few, but I will investigate.

I'm not sure that Ewok would let us do anything here, but it ideal since we are already all here.

This sadden me, we spend so much time and money and effort to do thing legally, do the right thing, wait and wait and follow instruction/direction from our Government for days/weeks/months/years, just to bring our loveone here.

That brings me to the idea of congress and the president just to give a free-pass to all ILLEGAL aliens sicken me!!!

If our USCIS don't have to pay attention to those illegal aliens, they would have more time to process our cases. That how I see it! Only 2hrs for me from Philly to DC. I'm there!

Marching: (can't find a marching one, so dancing will do for now)

WHo can write a well-written open letter to Senators/media outlets so everyone only has to change the name & fax it?

I don't have the skills some of you do. Then we can send a flurry everywhere!

Someone, perhaps Tigre (??) had well written one that we can adapt. I will be happy to start one (I will wirte it this weekend) and post it here for everyone's critique. Then we can all add our signatures and distribute. I am in PR/Media Relations and have some contacts, but will need to enlist everyone's help in this grassroots, guerilla marketing campaign on behalf of our relationships,

I get that it would be too spendy for us to assemble in Washington as we are all saving money for plane tickets, phone bills, weddings, etc. But we can do something via the www.

Look for something from me soon. I will make a new topic thread.

I am in too, and I live in DC.

Here is what I think we need to do. This would be better organized through email, since that it can spread better.

I set up an email account to start the chain. visaaction@gmail.com.

Send a note to that account with your email address and we will start an email chain to organize. We can always change it later, but that at least will give an alternative forum to gather interest.

The undocumented workers protested and look what that did.

What did it do? Has some new legislation been passed to allow them to stay? Did they get any relief?

Great - thanks for being proactive. Everyone email visaaction@gmail.com so he/she can start a distro list for us to come up with a plan.

Also consider joining us at www.americanfamiliesunited.org.

We are a grassroots organization actively lobbying for Family Unity in Immigration for American Citizen Spouse and children. We have a core group of members and actively fundraising to organize lobbying efforts and media awareness of the plights and hardships that American families face in the immigration process. We have hired a lobbyist who is currently working with us on preparing an amendment to bring parity and fairness to American families regarding waivers, name checks and other process delays.

Our mission: With a firm conviction that the right to keep a family together is a fundamental freedom, American Families United works to ensure that American immigration law protects families. We represent American citizens who are sponsoring nuclear family members for immigration. In order to respect the right to family, this process must not only encourage family unity but also minimize family separation. American Families United pursues both legislative and media strategies to guarantee that the immigration process faced by families is fair, timely and transparent.

We organized rallies around Mother's Day and are working on Labor Day events. The more members, supporting and joining us, the more successful we all can be an a united voice to MAKE A CHANGE for your families.

Please check out the website, volunteer, post in our new forum or make a pledge of support!

Thank you!!

I would be willing to help...

But my Cynical side says that most people really dont give a Rat's Rearend. As a matter of fact people who I would expect to care do not. On the contrary, I have been told by some that they are "happy the Gov. is taking there time". "The Gov. should check out all of these people coming in really really good!" is another response. I just tell them "Yees I'm all for that, Now if the Gov. would just do there job and PROCESS THE APPLICATIONS!"....... People just don't understand unless THEY are directly affected.
