Don't be shy about sending an email or a letter to your representative. If you feel like it doesn't make a difference, just think about the thousands of anti-immigrant propagandists bombarding our officials with phone calls and letters in an attempt to stop reform dead!!! We must try to balance this.

If anyone is unfamiliar with immigration law, or thinks that a spouse of a U.S. citizen automatically has the right to stay in the U.S. while petitioning for status, you need to get informed. This site briefly describes the horrible bans put in place by the IIRAIRA Act of 1996, and also provides some excellent suggestions to resolve the damage done by this law: http://immigrantslist.org/pages/key_issues_for_immediate_legislative_reform/

I have a similar problem. well not exactly it's my mom, the thing is i just found out i might not be able to fix her papers when i turn 21 because she got married about two years ago. What do you think I should do? I want to be able to travel with all my family without worrying that my mom could get deported if caught. i hope you and your wife can be reunited. hopefully our country could do something for all the families that have been seperated.
