Some progress

My statistics (the counter) is giving some good news. People looked at the site coming from US governmental servers and state government servers; from the World Bank! Welcome someone at FOX News as well! Anyone in a similar boat - unite and fight! Equal treatment for illegals and legals, and family unification for everyone!

Number who supported the Open Letter as a petition: PetitionOnline Count

Looks good on Google as well, getting easier to find this story, e.g. just now "Letter President May 13" suffices to hit it on top of the list. Thank you all visitors!

PS - Dear Unknown Visitor from the Red Cross - if you work for the Red Cross, this is a humanitarian issue as well. Thank you!

Important Fact

United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Article 9 1. States Parties shall ensure that a child shall not be separated from his or her parents against their will, except when competent authorities subject to judicial review determine, in accordance with applicable law and procedures, that such separation is necessary for the best interests of the child. Such determination may be necessary in a particular case such as one involving abuse or neglect of the child by the parents, or one where the parents are living separately and a decision must be made as to the child's place of residence. 2. In any proceedings pursuant to paragraph 1 of the present article, all interested parties shall be given an opportunity to participate in the proceedings and make their views known. 3. States Parties shall respect the right of the child who is separated from one or both parents to maintain personal relations and direct contact with both parents on a regular basis, except if it is contrary to the child's best interests. 4. Where such separation results from any action initiated by a State Party, such as the detention, imprisonment, exile, deportation or death (including death arising from any cause while the person is in the custody of the State) of one or both parents or of the child, that State Party shall, upon request, provide the parents, the child or, if appropriate, another member of the family with the essential information concerning the whereabouts of the absent member(s) of the family unless the provision of the information would be detrimental to the well-being of the child. States Parties shall further ensure that the submission of such a request shall of itself entail no adverse consequences for the person(s) concerned.
Status of the United States:
not ratified
Somalia:
not ratified
This speaks for itself. The United States is not bound by an agreement which otherwise all but one of the other member states of the United Nations ratified as basic human right. Unfortunately, Germany and a handful of other nations also diluted the ratification by objections. A club of rogue nations!
