• Immigration
    As a Counselor and community organizer I frequently come across children whose parents are either in jail or deported. These children are left to the mercy of some good samaritan or,if they get in trouble with the law - depending on the findings of the courts, they may become wards of the State. I would love to see a clause added to the immigration laws wherby children who fall under this unfortunate situation get thebenefit of becoming citizensrather than being deported. America is the only home they know, situation,are given special consideration for citizenship.Most of them are now adults and America is the only home they have.

    " I am against the awful immigration laws in the state of Alabama. I know the Governor supports these laws, but they are not fair and they are unjust. Governor Bentley can stand for what is right or support racial injustice. Governor Bentley also can save our schools by not allowing budget cuts to our schools.

  • Oppose Mississippi HB-488
    A petition to oppose the proposed anti-immigration bill (HB-488). The bill is similar to the bill recently passed in Alabama, which has had disastrous consequences for that state's economy, as well as reversed decades of progress in civil rights in the state.

  • Repealing Alabama's Immigration Law
    As a citizenry, we need to appeal this law. It is bad law since it is being challenged in the national courts. It has affected many lives adversely. Children are being pulled out of schools they feel comfortable in and are learning in. Jobs and employers are feeling the effect because businesses are suffering with jobs they can't fill. And lastly, the economy is taking a hit since the money is not there from citizens who are living in fear. Fear which has caused them to leave their employment. Thus businesses who rely on this money now no longer have this money and find it tougher to be successful. Even American born citizens who leave the house without any identification, are risking being arrested and are subject to deportation if they do not fit the profile of looking American. We need an immigration solution but this is not it. Thank you for your attention

  • Stop the deportation of American children!
    American citizens who are children of undocumented are poised either to be separated from their parents or to be technically deported from US. This does not reflect the American values. There are many undocumented families who live in US for more than 10 years and have strong ties to this country who are parents to American children. America does not want to deport those families that are contributing to the country and are paying taxes. Tell the Government to legalize parents of American citizens who lives in US for 10 years or more and have paid back taxes If this propose is enacted, it will provide more protection to the family unity and to the American citizens. This is not a backdoor amnesty. This is above all, a way to protect the American children! God bless America.

She is a Questbridge Scholar, in the International Baccalaureate Program, has the highest ACT scores in her class, and has a 6.7 GPA. Her brother has served in the US military for 2 years, and she has already been separated from her mother. She is truly an amazing individual and never ceases to inspire me with her passion, determination, and positivity. To be without Daniela in our lives and the country's lives is a loss of one of the most brilliant individuals I have ever met.
