"We are calling on Secretary Chertoff to accept the I-485 adjustment of status filings," said Executive Director Drew Seman. "Doing so is a step towards restoring fairness to our broken immigration system." Immigrants' List launched the petition on the evening of Thursday, July 12th. The petition is viewable online at http://www.immigrantslist.org/Chertoff . "The signature rate has been increasing exponentially since the launch of the petition," said Seman.
