Some paras from Congress's Oversight Offensive (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/16/AR2007031601989.html), By David S. Broder (http://projects.washingtonpost.com/staff/email/david+s.+broder/), Sunday, March 18, 2007
Ten weeks into the new Congress, it is clear that revelation, not legislation, is going to be its real product.
While President Bush threatens to use his veto pen to stop some bills and Senate Republicans block other measures from even reaching his desk, no force in Washington can halt the Democrats' investigative juggernaut from uncovering the secrets inside this administration.
For the first six years of the Bush administration, these aides were allowed free rein to carry out whatever policy or political assignments they wished -- or supposed that the president wanted done. A Congress under firm Republican control was somnolent when it came to oversight of the executive branch. No Republican committee chairman wanted to turn over rocks in a Republican administration.
You have to feel a twinge of sympathy now for the Bush appointees who suddenly find unsympathetic Democratic chairmen such as Henry Waxman, John Conyers, Patrick Leahy and Carl Levin investigating their cases. Even if those appointees are scrupulously careful about their actions now, who knows what subpoenaed memos and e-mails in their files will reveal about the past?
They will pay the price for the temporary breakdown in the system of checks and balances that occurred between 2001 and this year -- when the Republican Congress forgot its responsibility to hold the executive branch accountable.
It was a fundamental dereliction of duty by Congress, and it probably did more to encourage bad decisions and harmful actions by executive-branch political appointees than the much-touted lobbying influence. In reality, many Republican members of Congress did not mind what was happening because they were able to get favors done in that permissive climate. Now, the Democratic investigators will publicize instances of influence by members of Congress, and the political fallout will not stop with New Mexico's Pete Domenici and Heather Wilson.
Democrats find it easier to investigate than to legislate. With their major initiatives, from a minimum-wage boost to a shutdown of the Iraq war, stymied by Republican opposition, the Democrats are understandably making "accountability" their new goal -- meaning more and more investigations.
Fulfilling that promise, later in the week the House passed a series of bills that stripped some of the secrecy from executive branch documents and decisions.
Accountability is certainly important, but Democrats must know that people were really voting for action on Iraq, health care, immigration, energy and a few other problems. Investigations are useful, but only legislation on big issues changes lives.

Seeing no downside, more lawmakers reveal details of their work schedules (http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/seeing-no-downside-more-lawmakers-reveal-details-of-their-work-schedules-2007-09-18.html) By Jonathan E. Kaplan | The Hill, September 18, 2007
Do you know where your congressman is? Until recently, few aside from staffers could have answered �yes.� But under increased pressure from watchdogs and the public, more lawmakers are disclosing with whom they�re meeting, as well as when and where.
Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) is a case in point. For instance, she had two hectic days of meetings, receptions and fundraising events at the end of May.
On May 30, she met with American Insurance Group (AIG) officials, attended a meeting with Goldman Sachs employees to discuss sub-prime lending and alternative energy policies, sat down with Altria Group lobbyists to discuss tobacco regulation, and joined some of her business-friendly Democratic colleagues to meet with Morgan Stanley executives.
She then hopped on a plane for a two-day fundraising swing through San Francisco and Los Angeles, where she attended a fundraiser with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) and raised money for herself.
This information normally is hard to come by for a reporter or government watchdog group. But during last year�s campaign, the Sunlight Foundation, a new watchdog, challenged lawmakers and candidates to publish their official work schedule online within 24 hours of the end of the workday.
�My sixth sense about this is that greater transparency is an antidote to corruption and members of Congress get that,� the executive director of the Sunlight Foundation, Ellen Miller, said. �[California Republican Rep.] John Doolittle is a case in point. We�re at the tip of the iceberg. More and more will do it as citizens begin to understand it.�
Gillibrand agreed to make her calendar public during the 2006 campaign, making it easier to see how she is using her time. Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) also started posting his schedule when he arrived in Washington even though he did not sign the pledge, his spokesman Matt McKenna said.
For Tester, open government is �a way of life in Montana,� McKenna said, adding that the reaction �has been all positive.�
Six more lawmakers, Reps. Alcee Hastings (D-Fla.), Kathy Castor (D-Fla.), Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), Denny Rehberg (R-Mont.) and Doolittle and Sen. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.), have followed suit.
The calendars provide a glimpse into the harried lives of the lawmakers, showing with whom they meet and how they manage their time and highlighting differences between the House and Senate.
They also allow observers to link campaign donations to meetings.
Gillibrand flew to Palo Alto, Calif., on May 30. A week earlier she gave $4,600 to Clinton�s presidential campaign. On June 2, Gillibrand met � the calendar does not say where � with Jayne Shapiro, a wealthy businesswoman, who gave $500 to the campaign. Gillibrand also met with Marsha Kwalwasser, an executive at Northrup Grumman, according to CQ Moneyline.
Reporters and constituents love publicly posted schedules, and so do opposition researchers. MajorityAP.com, a Republican Web-based research service that provides information to reporters about Democratic lawmakers, accused Gillibrand of misleading the public by not stating where the event took place.
�It�s reasonable that the people in her district know that she�s in California raising money during the Memorial Day recess,� the website�s founder, Michael Brady, said.
A spokeswoman for Gillibrand said the missing location was a simple oversight, adding that Gillibrand�s office would look into adding the location.
Miller said Tester�s schedule should be the standard that lawmakers emulate, but that more disclosure is better than none.
Tester shares the same frenetic pace as Gillibrand, traveling, presiding over the Senate, sitting in committee hearings, meeting with constituents and huddling with Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.).
Take June 21, for instance.
Tester started the day at 9 a.m. with his senior staff, then attended a Senate Indian Affairs Committee hearing, met with a delegation from the PPL Corporation, presided over the Senate floor and lunched with former NBC anchorman Tom Brokaw.
The lawmaker returned to his office to meet with constituents, hit the annual ice cream social, chatted with more constituents � including the winner of the National Peace Essay Contest � and met with an official from the American Bankers Association. He and Baucus huddled at 3:30 and the Senate met at 11 p.m. that evening.
While editorial boards and government watchdog groups have praised the postings for adding transparency to the political process, each calendar has its shortcomings. Gillibrand and Schakowsky, for example, do not specify at what time each appointment occurred. Tester does not identify some people; Rehberg and Doolittle do not detail the time they spend politicking or raising money; and Hastings only lists his weekly schedule.
Most lawmakers do not archive their schedules, although Congresspedia does.
Castor, however, lists the times of her meetings and includes information on fundraising events she attends. She began posting her schedule in March.
�She�s a very strong supporter of open government,� Castor�s spokeswoman, Agustina Guerrero, said.

Your obligations to IRS does not interfere with your GC process. This is not a "work" that you are getting paid for, outside your LCA.
It is very common and people before you have faced it and people after you will face it. Calm down and take this one worry off your list.

My daughter (5 yrs) is an US citizen and having passport valid until end of Sep 2009 and having POI card for 15 years from Indian consulate.
Now I am planning to take her to India for 3 weeks from Aug 1st week. The travel agents says her passport should have at least 6 months valid from the date of date of the return (Aug 4th week). Is that true/correct? Can she enter here in USA after her India visit with 20 days left in the passport validity?
I will be using my AP though I maintain H1B status (I-797) and work for the same employer.
Thanks for your reply.

My sister's H1B petition was approved on 2008 and she was unable to travel US for the past 1.5 year.
She is working in a MNC company in India. Now, she came to US on her B1 visa 1.5 month back. Meanwhile, she got an offer from a client in US and she want takeover the new job on her approved H1.
So, can you please let me know whether the employer (whoever filed my sister's h1) can file the H1B amenment while she in US with B1 visa and having H1B approved petition? If so, how many days she has to wait to get the approved amenment to start her work at client place? The employer is going to do the premium payment so that can we assume the amenment will be approved for sure?.
The LCA is really required for H1amenment? Please advice. This is really urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Certain voices in the nursing community are trying to make the argument that there is no nursing shortage and we need to keep protectionist policies in place. But there has been a great deal compelling evidence pointing in only one direction for many years - a nurse shortage that is already bad and will grow much worse in decades to come. Here's an article from CNN/Money that is certainly scary. And 30 million more patients are about to gain access to health care under the reform bill on the verge of passage in Congress. If we don't have enough nurses...
