style="font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">style="font-size: 12px;">style="border-collapse: collapse; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal;">After
five years of love and commitment, Josh and his husband Henry
from Venezuela are about to be ripped apart¹ by the US governmentclass="Apple-style-span"
style="border-collapse: collapse; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal;"> -
and 36,000 other couples face the same fate.



style="border-collapse: collapse; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); line-height: normal;">If
Josh and Henry were a straight couple, Josh could easily sponsor
Henry's visa and keep their family together.  But even though
President Obama promised to stop defending the national law that
refuses to recognize gay marriages,² his administration continues to
block Josh from sponsoring Henry's visa.  On May 6, Henry
faces a deportation that will separate them for 10 years.

head of Obama's Department of Homeland Security, Janet

couples - from being torn apart by calling a moratorium on
deportations until the courts can decide whether to recognize
same-sex partnerships.  It's within her power,class="Apple-style-span"

it will take a huge public outcry to force her to take a stand.
