Tell Rep.Stephen Lynch to support a discharge petitionComprehensive immigration reform is dying a slow death in Congress because House Speaker Boehner—who has the power to demand an up-or-down vote on the reform bill—refuses to get out of the way. But there is a simple way that Democrats can bypass Boehner and save immigration reform. They can introduce the Senate bill, which passed with broad bipartisan support, then use a discharge petition to force an up-or-down vote in the House of Representatives. A discharge petition is the most viable option to pass comprehensive immigration reform this fall. It only takes 218 votes to file a discharge petition—that's every Democrat in Congress and 17 Republicans. Support for the discharge petition is growing in the media and among members of Congress.220 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Pedro Velazquez

Please, intruduce a comprehensive immigration reform bill with passage to citizenship and support...I know several families that have been waiting for decades to see immigration reform so they can get out of the shadows, and feel like they are normal and useful people to this country. Many of them have american children, have paid taxes every year, have helped the economy, and also have clean police records. My wife and I went through immigration proceedings to be removed from this country of my daughters, and were extremely lucky to stay. Today I beg to The House of Representatives for all the 11 million immigrants without status, to approve a strong comprehensive immigration reform with a clear path to citizenship for them. Right now there is no solution for them and their children, and I don't want them to go through what I did as an immigrant. Legislators be fair with these famiklies, this country is made of immigrants since the beginning of the American History.45 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Claudio Chaparro
