ACTION ALERT: Help save a marriage today!

While the country focuses on recent international events, this Friday a married bi-national couple may be ripped apart from one another by the U.S. government.

Josh is an American citizen. Henry is from Venezuela. They married in Connecticut in August 2010. But because of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), Josh can't sponsor Henry for a green card like any heterosexual American can.

Because of DOMA, Henry risks being deported THIS FRIDAY.

There are a few ways you can help show support for Henry and take action to stop the destruction of our families.
