Making people who have been deported for ten years be eligible to come back before that if they pay a fine. Also if they commit to work and not be a burden for the economy. People should sign it if they are in a similar situation especially if a person was deported and their only crime was enter illegally but have no other violent or drug related crimes.

Arizona is headed toward a crisis, but the President can stop it immediately. Because of Sheriffs like Joe Arpaio in Maricopa County, Arizona is already known for its abuse of power and some of the worst racial profiling in recent history. Now that the Supreme Court has allowed parts of the anti-immigrant law, SB1070, to go into effect, Arizona will get even worse unless we move the President to act. The civil rights violations that will sky rocket in Arizona under SB1070 can only be carried out if the federal government willingly cooperates and processes SB1070's victims for deportation after Sheriffs like Arpaio round them up. The President can stop racial profiling, prejudiced policing, and the separation of families, by cutting off Arizona's access to federal immigration enforcement.

Following the recent announcement that President Obama will halt the deportation of DREAMers, the Supreme Court has announced that they will let stand the despicable "Papers, please" provision of Arizona's SB 1070 that allows police to profile individuals based on the color of their skin. Our country's urgent need for a comprehensive solution for our broken immigration system has never been clearer. Add your name and message below to tell our leaders in Washington that the time is NOW for comprehensive immigration reform!

With the current immigration laws, when a citizen marries an undocumented immigrant, the citizen must file a petition for residency on behalf of the immigrant. At the point of interviewing with the immigration official it is likely that the immigrant will have a ten year ban from the country placed on them, separating the couple for many years unless the citizen can prove a hardship without the spouse. I am personally capable of taking care of myself and my children alone, and I do not have a debilitating illness, but because I cannot take my children out of the country to live, as their father is American, I am forced to choose between my children or my husband. I married him because I love him, not because I needed him financially, but now I may lose my husband because when people are forced to be apart for years the relationship can die. It would be financially impossible for me to visit more than once a year.

The U.S. Supreme Court will shortly announce whether or not it will allow the State of Arizona's proposed discriminatory SB1070 bill to pass. The bill proposes that anyone suspected of being here without proper documentation can be stopped by police for this reason alone. Please sign this petition if you agree that the bill's passing would infringe on our rights and on our families.

I teach English to our immigrants and so many of them disappear because they work such long hours they can not attend class. I checked our labor law and discovered there is NO limit on the number of hours employees can be forced to work in one 24-hour period. None whatsoever. I have a current student working landscaping who worked 8 a.m. to 11:05 p.m. recently.

Americans are innovative, and our research institutions are world renowned. The major breakthroughs in the fields of engineering and science often lead to new companies, sometimes new industries. In today's globalized economy, granting foreign nationals access to our research institutions is to the detriment of our economy, businesses, and societal progression. To Americans, it disincentives the pursuit of graduate work, and eventuates in the US training foreigners to be highly skilled and knowledgeable beyond most Americans. Some might say foreigners are more qualified to be doctors or masters in their field, this argument is a slap in the face of our school systems and every American. If our research and development begins to lack, our lower educational institutions are to blame, not our lack of investment in foreign nationals. If a highly qualified individual desires to benefit from involvement in our publicly funded research institutions, obtaining US citizenship and committing to contribute to our society should be an unobtrusive requirement.

A simple method that would not target ethnic groups as it would apply to everyone seeking a job. Heavy fines and /or jail time to those employers hiring illegals!

Unemployment would really go down if the government would enforce the laws against illegal immigration.

I am a stateless person seeking entry into the United States to ensure that I can be present for the reopening and rehearing of my asylum case. I was born in the former U.S.S.R. and have resided in the United States for about 16 years after entering on December 12, 1995 on a B1/B2 visa as citizen of ex Soviet Union. In February 1996, I applied for asylum on basis of ethnicity (Armenian) and religion (Christianity) during the war between Azerbaijan and Armenia caused in part by anti-Armenian sentiment by muslim populated Azerbaijan along with significant persecution and discrimination towards Armenians, Russians and openly practice gay population in Muslim populated Turkmenistan (part of former Soviet Republic). I never brought the issue of being gay during my asylum hearing in 1996 as I was not aware about gay situation in US and was scared to open myself, was afraid of being humiliated or worth hated. My applications for asylum and withholding of removal were denied on October 17, 1996. I was granted voluntary departure and told to leave by November 18, 1996. I could not leave United States due to circumstances beyond my control as I found myself stateless without country.    I tried to get travel documents on numerous occasions from former republics of U.S.S.R. including Russia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan but received denials each time. The Consulate of Azerbaijan in Los Angeles in written denied my request for travel document and citizenship and I.C.E. in Los Angeles has the copy of that letter.  The Department of Homeland Security later released me under Order of Supervision in 2003 ( I continued reporting for supervision through my last report in October 2011) after their efforts to secure travel documents for me also failed.  When U.S.S.R. dissolved, I considered a citizen be neither Russia or other former republics of Soviet block due to their newly adopted citizenship law after gaining independency from Soviet Union. The UNHCR, learning of my situation, identified me as a person of concern to them because of my stateless status.   I applied for and received visitor permit to enter American Samoa and entered on December 29, 2011 for a New Year holiday vacation. I believed that I could travel to American Samoa without being considered departing the United States after being told by immigration authorities in Los Angeles that it was not a problem getting to American Samoa as long as I could obtain travel permission from American Samoa Government since American Samoa considered a territory not a state, which I did. During my visit to American Samoa I also traveled for one day to Western Samoa. I had no idea that Western Samoa was independent state until I arrived there, I thought that Eastern and Western Samoa was part of United States territory of American Samoa. I was denied trying to board my flight from American Samoa to Los Angeles via Honolulu on January 2, 2012. This is when I first was made aware that I could not return.   During my trip, my pro bono attorney, Ms. Lauren Gibson, Esq. was contacted by Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Office of Chief Counsel that they wanted to initiate a motion to reopen my asylum case. I would be able to bring new evidence, especially in light of the fact that I am gay without country and face severe persecution if ever able to be forced to return to any country of the former U.S.S.R.   The UNHCR and U.S. Department of Homeland Security identified me as part of a vulnerable population because I am stateless. I must return to the United States so I am present for my reopened immigration court proceedings. I must make sure I have a chance to give new evidence about why I must receive asylum.   As a stateless with no papers to enter another country as refugee or asylum seeker I am like a bird with nowhere to rest on the ground, but which can't spend his whole life in the sky. Only the oceans, the skies over my head. I cannot legally enter another state where I face the same illegalities which I face in the deporting state. United States was my home for 16 years, my life, my education, my carrier where I  strongly established ties to the community in Houston, TX where I lived before and in Los Angeles, CA where I lived before my short vacation trip to the U.S. territory in South Pacific.   My asylum claim was viewed as important enough to reopen by ICE. They initiated the desire to reopen my case. It would be counter to the opinion of a Department of Homeland Security agency to allow me to receive humanitarian parole so I can be present for my case.   American Samoa has no immigration or refugee system. I am stuck in limbo unless I can return to the United States and present my case before the immigration courts.

There is a lot of residents in the US that are affect for the politics of the Republican party and they can not pay back on them. Most of them are older than 18 years old, so if they are in their country can vote, but because they are out of their country they can not vote, in this way their voice is not expressed. I think some of them will believe that if they get the US citizenship they are being traitors to their countries, so relief them from this feeling and allow the US LEGAL RESIDENTS right to vote, not to become elected but to vote.
