Linking otherwise controversial benefits to #marriage has long been a way to make them acceptable. This is the latest version of the practice that I write about in my book You’ll Do, A History of #marrying for reasons other than #love. #immigration

New: Looking to shore up Latino votes in Nevada and Arizona, Biden is on the verge of following up his border executive action with a move focused on providing legal status for long-term undocumented immigrants married to US citizens. W/ @IsaacDovere: https://t.co/23hTS27yHL

My thoughts on marrying for the "right" reasons. #marriage #divorce #family #love

[The Institute for Family Studies @FamStudies]

There is no one “right reason” to marry. Nevertheless, by acting as if there is, we are essentially ensuring that marriage rates will continue to decline. https://t.co/1TgXl9z8Nn

[Marcia Zug @Prof_Zug]

As I explore in my book You'll Do, marriage has long been an exception to immigration restrictions. Here we go again. #marriage #immigration

[Michelle Hackman @MHackman]

My latest is about a proposal, under discussion for months at the White House, to create a program similar to DACA for undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens. The WH is looking for measures it can take to please advocates after an expected border EO https://t.co/5FOAS7PnUX

@Morgan_J_Talty I live in South Carolina and the Catawba settlement Act was almost as bad. Catawba kids even lost their right to free public schools. Perhaps you all should join forces. Good luck!

Lovely review of You’ll Do

[Steerforth Press @SteerforthPress]

Thank you @ShelfAwareness for this fantastic review of You'll Do: A History of Marrying for Reasons Other Than Love by @Prof_Zug. https://t.co/EqsQAsJIfp

Sometimes you can win too much. We will see if going after IVF is that step too far, my guess is it’ll be #IVF or #birthcontrol

[Marcia Zug @Prof_Zug]

@aehickerson Aww thanks for telling me, that makes my day.

[Marcia Zug @Prof_Zug]

You’ll Do makes the Foreward Reviews #book of the day! https://t.co/ie1ZeAtGsm

[Marcia Zug @Prof_Zug]

If we are going to attach so many benefits to #marriage we should be really sure marriage is worth it. It might not be.
