		<description>The CIR ASAP DID NOT include immigration equality for gay and lesbian Americans with foreign-born partners or spouses. How can any fair-minded person call this &quot;comprehensive&quot;? Once again, the gay and lesbian population of America is the last group that is &quot;safe&quot; to hate. Shame on the Rep. Guttierez for leaving us out.</description>

		<description>HONORABLE SR.PRESIDENTE BARAK HUSSEIN OBAMA; NOSOTROS, EL PUEBLO INCLUYENDO A LOS CIUDADANOS HISPANOS DE ESTE PAIS (+15% ELECTORADO NACIONAL) =&gt; FUIMOS QUIENES LO PUSIMOS EN LA CASA BLANCA,Y DIMOS A LOS DEMOCRATAS SESENTA VOTOS EN EL SENADO Y UNA MAYORIA EN EL CONGRESO, ES HORA QUE CUMPLA SU PROMESA DE UNA REFORMA MIGRATORIA AMPLIA Y JUSTA POR LA SEGURIDAD Y PROSPERIDAD DE ESTA NACION!



I am especially thankful for my Latin American friends who have taught me the meaning of love. I am a better person because of them. They are the most loving, kind, generous and caring people I have ever known despite the extreme difficulties that they struggle with every day due to their unregistered status. I believe that from a humanitarian standpoint that immigration reform is the most important issue this legislature will face. I pray every day that God will guide our legislators to pass this legislation as soon as possible. I pray everyday that the Lord may iluminate the minds of those in positions of Justice and of Congress



Most Honorable Congressman Luis Gutierrez 
and “Reform Immigration for America” Organization, we commend your great humanitarian and tireless work and effort advocating for a Comprehensive Immigration Reform. We agree that an Immigration Reform proposal is going to have to include Enforcements and Sanctions, however these should NOT be applied before an Immigration Reform. Therefore WE MUST REJECT E-VERIFY!- This enforcement is being ’sold’ as a punishement for employers, but in reality is just another form of Raids. WE MUST REJECT E-VERIFY, this is an enforcement that is being currently applied, and it is unfair because our Immigrants haven’t have the opportunity yet to apply for legalization through an Immigration Reform.



WE MUST REJECT E-VERIFY, this eforcement encourages racial profiling and discrimination even towards the Legal Immigrants. WE MUST REJECT E-VERIFY, this encorcement is devastating and tearing apart the immigrant families. 
WE MUST REJECT E-VERIFY, this enforcement is an attrocity towards our hard-working Immigrant Community and would even adversely affect our economy. There is a real humanitarian crisis that our Immigrant community is facing. They face daily attacks, abuses and discrimination in this country. Many of these Immigrants would rather had stayed in their home countries, but the poverty, the violence, and the unfair trade that only benefits the foreign corporations has forced them to seek better life and opportunities here in the U.S.



IN THE UNION OF THE PEOPLE IS THE REAL POWER THAT WE HAVE……..PLEASE CALL TODAY! White house = 1-866-956-3902 /// D.H.S. Janet Napolitano = (202)282-8495 /// and Mr. President Obama = (202) 456-1111 and leave this message: “YES to an Immigration Reform” //// The E-verify encourages discrimination and racial profiling because in order to avoid trouble, a company won’t hire a Latino/Asian/Minority even if he/she is documented.  NO to E-verify! until all immigrants have had the opportunity to apply for Legalization through an Immigration Reform. NO to Gestapo-like Raids at workplace and homes! – Raids terrorize children and destroy families! STOP the relentless witch-hunt, persecution and the scapegoating of HARD-WORKING Immigrants!”



I am thankful for the many immigrants I have gotten to know and work with. They have lifted my spirit by their courage at living in a strange land whose language they often do not know well. They have encouraged me with their faith and testimonies. They want so much to become a part of a nation that often seems not to want them. They have taught me about their cultures which are rich and they have enriched my spirit. I am thankful for their love to USA. May God’s blessings fill their lives… “soon, all immigrants under the same Flag, our flag, United States’ Flag, our Country!!!” Good bless all persons that are working hard every day to get this Immigration Reform, and we must be part, if we involve in this fight, the success will be ours!!!!!!

More than 60,000 participants in  Congressman Luis Gutierrez’s town hall, a historic night on the road to reform. Your activism, alongside others, drove none other than Lou Dobbs and his xenophobia away from CNN – a huge victory in the fight against hate.  And, last but not least, since this campaign launched in June you’ve made more than half a million calls and faxes to Congress and the administration demanding immigrants’ rights and calling for comprehensive immigration reform.  The work you have done to this point is exactly why we will win this fight.  Oh God , Thanks for the day when America will make comprehensive immigration reform the law of the land. That day is coming soon.</description>
