Legal Status for all Haitians Immigrants in U.S.A before January1st, 2013.

I know personally at least FIFTY people who driving without DL, they have to!!!, we all do, please follow Illinois legislature and change the rules.

New Mexico has taken the lead in promoting public safety measures for all by allowing immigrant families to obtain driver’s licenses regardless of immigration status

Immigration laws has affected alot of families including the hispanics and more. These people are being torn aprt from deportation of their families. Many are losing their families and leaving the children behind. Please stop all deportation, house raids, and more.Leave these families alone.

I have been in an accident where the uninsured person got away with not paying a dime. Myself and my insurance however had to foot the bill. Everyone should have to have a drivers license and auto insurance who drives on our roads. It's the only sane choice for safety and accountability.

If a prerequisite for obtaining citizenship is being able to speak English, there needs to be financial support from public education funds. I teach English as a second language in California, and the county claims they can afford to pay teachers for only 2 1/2 hours a week instruction. The free classes for immigrants who are highly motivated, are inadequate. Surely we can help them more effectively.

Immigration officials in Arizona recently targeted and raided the family home of a leading immigrant rights organizer. On January 10, Erika and her family were at home spending time with each other. That evening, someone knocked on the door. As Erika answered, the first thing she saw an ICE officer handcuffing her brother, who had been outside talking to a neighbor. Another ICE officer stood in front of Erika asking for Maria, her mother. Erika asked the officer if he had a warrant and why they were taking her family. He answered that they were undocumented and had to go. The officers detained her mother before driving away. Erika and her younger brother were left alone in the living room, forcibly separated from their closest family. Erika leads immigrant youth nationwide; her story and activism are well-known. Recently, President Obama and ICE announced they would not deport individuals without a criminal record, but our families are torn apart every day. If this could happen to Erika, it could happen to anyone else. End their deportation now. Help us keep Erika's family together.

This petition is sponsored by Mexico Democrats Abroad and local chapters of Democrats Abroad throughout Mexico in an effort to support much needed Immigration Reform in the United States. It is our hope that it will be signed by U.S. citizens in America and throughout the world.

The Forrester Family is seeking relief from outdated and disproportionate immigration laws that have permanently banned Mr. Forrester from the United States for life, because of simple possession of marijuana. We believe that waivers should be available to spouses of U.S. citizens so that the past mistakes of the immigrant can be weighed against the hardship to the U.S. family if they are never allowed to come. Please sign our petition to Bring the Forrester Family Together. Our children need their father.

We are asking President Obama and his administration to honor their promises and stop the raids on workplaces and sites where day laborers are waiting for work in Illinois and to stop the plan to build a privately owned detention facility in Joliet, IL. Stop ICE commitment to keep 90% capacity on a daily basis and push legislation to give permanent legal status to a significant number of estimated 11.1 million undocumented immigrants living in the USA. To help keep families and friends together.

It is unconscionable that the U.S. spends $2 billion a year to lock up immigrants like criminals. Any comprehensive immigration reform should end mandatory detention under INA 236(c) of long-time green card holders with work and families here, drastically reduce detention of all immigrants, and provide appointed counsel to detainees as we do to criminal defendants.

Our nation's future is being crippled by political leaders who could not even raise taxes on income over $1M a year. For the good of our nation, those with allegiance to a no-tax pledge must not be allowed to vote on issues involving taxation, to serve on budget committees, or to take part in negotiations that involve taxes.
