  • I'm one of the people Glenn's writing about, and I'm ready for some change I can believe in

    I'm an American currently living in exile in Canada. My partner is from India. We're both struggling to adapt to the challenges of living in a new country. This wasn't how we wanted things to work out, but it's the best option open to us. I had to immigrate here before I could sponsor his immigration. It was expensive, it took a long time, and was difficult to leave my family an friends behind, but I had no choice. I'll forever be grateful to Canada for giving us this opportunity, but I hope one day to return to the States with my partner. Repealing DOMA would be big step towards realizing that dream. In the meantime I'm supporting http://www.immigrationequality.org/ with my donations, and encourage anyone interested in same sex immigration issues to visit their site.
