Those dates are now: Monday, June 24, Thursday, June 27 or Friday, June 28.
Win, lose or draw - be sure to make your voice heard. Attend a Day of Decision rally in your city. Check this link
for information. Our legal sources have informed us that if DOMA is
overturned, same-sex binationals will be able to file marriage-based
green card applications. We encourage you to consult with your
immigration attorney as soon as possible. If you need recommendations,
you can email us at info@out4immigration.org.
One
thing is certain. We will have a SCOTUS decision before San Francisco
Pride on June 29-30. That's why we need all hands on deck to help
disseminate information at our booth at Civic Center on both days, as
well as to march with us at 10 am on Sunday, June 30.
- To volunteer for a 2-hour shift at our booth, June 29-30, please RSVP at this Facebook link.
- To march with us at San Francisco Pride on June 30, please RSVP at this Facebook link.
Not on Facebook, but ready to help out? Let us know at info@out4immigration.org
This
year we are again sharing booth space with our allies Marriage Equality
USA (MEUSA) and marching behind their contingent in the parade. Our
message is very much linked to theirs - marriage equality has always
been one of the pathways to ending immigration inequality. With our current exclusion from the Senate immigration bill, the pathway to green cards for same-sex binationals hinges heavily on the DOMA decision.
We
will put out an email on the Day of Decision sharing with all of you
what we know and available resources. Please keep visiting the Facebook
links above and checking our blog and Yahoo News Group
for our Pride booth number and Parade contingent meetup time and place.
We'll encourage those of you marching in the parade to bring your own
signs -- will they say finally "United by Love, United by Law" or ....?
Take a deep breath.
