Right now married same sex bi-national couples are unable to obtain a green card for the foreign partner due to DOMA. It is now expected that the Supreme Court will resolve this issue by June 2013. However, these couples suffer from the discriminatory effects of DOMA everyday. The right thing to do is to put green card applications that are filed by married same sex bi-national couples on hold so that they could have some relief until then. Since doing so doesn't violate DOMA, there is no good reason not to take this step.
