Our children are being educated here in the US and will be forced to leave at the age of 21. It's foolish that US educated children are not afforded to use their education to contribute to the US economy.

I am signing this petition in support of the family of Steve Zoe Adams and their grown children. They are from England, are here legally and are amazing additions to the United States of America!

Please reform the law so that children of legal immigrants can stay in the US legally and have a quick and efficient means to become citizens.

I find it a very sad situation; children of law abiding legal immigrants are not getting fairly treated. It seems children of illegal immigrants- law breakers, are somehow given advantages!

Families who enter this country following the legal process and procedures should have their citizenship if they meet the requirements to become a citizen, especially if they have demonstrated what it takes, worked hard and paid their taxes, started businesses, maintained an honorable position in this country, educated their children here. Citizenship should be granted to both parents and all their siblings.

Most of these kids have been bought to the US by their parents, when they were too young to have a say. However, since then they have grown and developed and integrated into this life. It is morally wrong to make them go back to their country of origin when the rest of the family are still here.

Families who enter the USA legally and live here legally for years and years should have a straightforward path to citizenship.
They are an asset to the USA.

It makes no sense!! They have lived here, gone to school and achieved so much, then when they get to the college level and want to stay and make a life and attend our universities, some stupid clause in a law, makes them go home!!?? Why??!! Please change this so we can keep these intelligent young people that want to stay and be a part of the country they have lived in for so long!
