Great Video about Our Issue from Rep. Mike Honda, Author of Reuniting Families Act

Steve Ralls from Immigration Equality sent this to us today as it was being released on the Immigration Equality web site. Wow! Thanks to them for working with Mike to make this video to help us all – and thanks to Mike for all he has done for all of us! Karin and I are glad to have such great partners in the march to equality for same-sex binational couples.

Here’s my regular sign-off for blog posts:

Immigration Equality, Out4Immigration and Love Exiles Foundation are the three groups working on our issue – and the three groups who receive whatever money comes in from sales of my book, Torn Apart: United by Love, Divided by Law, Findhorn Press, 2011.

My newer project, with David W. Ross, whose new film “I Do: The Movie” will be out in June 2012, is a portrait project of LGBT binational families, United by Love, Divided by Law Portrait Project. It expands the reach of my book and will keep adding portraits as we find couples and funds to add more. We will hold events to assist the work being done for our families by Lavi Soloway and Stop the Deportations – The DOMA Project. Check out the site at

Elizabeth Gilbert wrote the foreword to my book. She is an ally in our fight and has suffered from the immigration situation herself as part of a binational relationship. Though she and her boyfriend were able to marry, they know what the drill was and they advocate for LGBT binational families. We like that!
