Congressional candidate's partner faces deportation because of DOMA
When Mike Williams decided to run for Congress in Connecticut's 5th Congressional district, he did it, he said, "to be a role model for the underprivileged -- not just LGBT kids, but all the kids in Connecticut who don't have the same opportunities they're supposed to." And then Williams found himself one of those people in Connecticut who lack certain opportunities when his Dutch partner, Bart Hoedemaker, was told he was losing his job and faced deportation.
