March 11, 2010, 11:56pm (report abuse)My family is so prayerful that the HOPE Act will pass. We are in the process of adopting our daughter from Haiti, whom we love so dearly, and this timing issue has been a nightmare. The HOPE Act will allow her to be home with her family, getting the love and attention she deserves.

March 13, 2010, 11:52pm (report abuse)We are hoping and praying for the HOPE Act to pass. There are many orphans with documents proving their orphan status and parent/guardian relinquishment who need a family. This Act also makes room in the Haitian orphanages for the new orphans due to the earthquake. The orphanages are overcrowded now with all the new orphans...let's make room and bring pre-quake orphans into families!
