| | FAIR -- Jerold Nadler's PPIA Press Release -- September 18th, 2002 |
 | | To mark the occasion, the sponsor of The Permanent Partners Immigration Act, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), has written to Rep. George Gekas (R-PA) to hold immediate hearings on the bill in the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims, which Rep. Gekas chairs. |
 | | For example, if a person is found to have entered into a fraudulent permanent partnership for the purposes of obtaining a visa for another person, they will be subject to the same five year maximum imprisonment, or $250,000 maximum fine, or both, as a person who contracts a fraudulent marriage would. |
 | | Rep. Nadler has served in Congress since 1992 where he has worked on many issues of importance to the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community. |
