Today I felt that I should go around to me elected offices and show them my marriage lic. Two weeks ago I went into Peter kings office and asked how he stood on the uniting families act but they couldn’t answer me. So today I went in with my marriage Lic. And asked again and got no answer but the normal reply from them which was nothing, and a sour face. Then I asked if they could do a special visa just like the lesbian couple and I got the look of death from them. I was told that I had to put it in writing, that’s so funny because they always seem to lose my letters to them and e-mails.
Next it was off to Senator Kirsten Gillibrands office, its nice being able to talk to some one that’s willing to listen! I did ask how she stood on the uniting families act but they couldn’t answer me. They said that they would get back to me as soon as they know. I was dealing with a little sub office here on Long Island but the people where friendly!
Off to Steven Israel’s office, we all know that he is a co-sponsor to the bill. I told the guy at the door that I just wanted them to see a face that goes along with the bill and asked if his office could get a special visa, the one like the lesbians got only this time word it till the uniting families act is passed. I’m not in his area, but they had me talk with a case worker! Holy sh- t! They are people of action! I have to ask my partner if he wants them to try for a new student visa, or one that I’m trying for, you might remember that the Vi. Council of the American embassy tagged him a 214b.
All in all it was a good morning and later on I’m going to write the letters that the Senator and Israel’s office asked for
