Initing American Families Act Hearing June 3rd Before Senate Judiciary Committee

On Wednesday morning, June 3, at 10 a.m. the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on the Uniting American Families Act (UAFA). (If you are in town, the hearing is in Room 226 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building.) C-Span does not have Wednesday's television schedule up yet, but the Committee website offers a webcast of the hearing. UAFA would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to allow a citizen to sponsor a same sex partner for citizenship. This might be one of those bills that ultimately goes nowhere or it may fundamentally change the course of both the gay marriage and immigration debates. Follow me below the fold for more on this bill. Full Story from Daily Kos - Click Here
