Another sad story

Tim Coco, had been on a rather lonely crusade to be reunited with his husband, Genesio "Junior" Oliveira, until Senator John Kerry intervened. However, even that was not enough, as the Justice Department denied Oliveira's asylum request.

Many bi-national couples have turned to political asylum as a last resort with little success. This case just proves that without legislative actions, there's really very few things we could do to keep our families together.

Sad, but true.
