Dear Members,
We have worked hard in the last 4 years and have made some progress along the way Immigration Voice Achievements (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=47) But Most of us are still in the limbo of green card process and waiting in different stages. Some of us may have advanced to the I-485 stage and have a little more career flexibility but the hanging sword of uncertainty still looms over our heads.
Our angst, our insecurity:
Even with EAD and other options, lack of green card is lack of security and lack of certainty. You know it and you feel it every day. In order to find a permanent fix for the uncertainty, angst and insecurity and in order to snap out of the probationary lifestyle and career, we have to finish what we started over 4 years ago -- get the U.S. Congress to act on this problem and solve it once and for all.
Early effort wins:
The first agenda of next Congress will be immigration and we expect an immigration bill to be debated sometime in early 2011. However, it would be a big mistake to wait until that time to do something about that bill. Successful advocacy efforts are the ones that start early and introduce concepts and ideas into the debate before the legislators write their first draft. Once the committee hearings and debates begin, it is harder to get changes or fixes into a bill because it requires an amendment to the bill in a politically charged and heated atmosphere. Groups and organizations that wait until the last minute to influence members of congress often fail to achieve results. In order to succeed in next year's immigration bill, we have to begin talking to members of congress now. Remember, the advocacy efforts we did with lobby day and rally in Sept 2007 influenced congress to include our provisions in bipartisan bills introduced in Aug 2008. Legislative things take time.
How you can help:
You and help in two different ways:
Join the advocacy effort in DC on June 7th and 8th. (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1437978-iv-announcement-advocacy-days-in-washington-dc-7th-and-8th-june.html) If you have never done this before, we encourage you to help us with this and join us. Immigration voice will arrange the logistics of setting up meetings and arranging the material for you to take to your Congressmen and Senators. We are expecting about 150 immigration voice members to gather in DC and participate in over 200 meetings with Congressmen and Senators.
Contributing Funds to help finance the effort (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1534974-funding-drive-iv-needs-your-support-for-advocacy-events-in-dc.html). You are most welcome to come to DC and join us but if your job demands are such that you cannot take two days off on June 7th and 8th, then you can still contribute to this effort by contributing financially to Immigration Voice. Many expenses tied to the travel of grassroots members from distant states is being expensed by Immigration Voice. So kindly contribute funds to this effort by clicking on this link. You have an obligation to yourself and your family to plant your career in this country once and for all. EAD and AP, if you have them, are not going to cut it. We are not there yet. And we have to finish together what we started together.
Thank you.

My wife and I got involved with IV activities/volunteering about 2 months before the rally....and we are very glad we did!
Its been a very rewarding and learning experience....after meeting with the lawmakers- it has fortified our belief in IV and renewed our enthusiasm about the process. After reading Logiclife's post I am convinced that active participation is the key to achieving success!
We plan on continuing our efforts - turning sceptics into believers - it is especially needed in the DC/VA/MD!
Cheers!!

Is there a way out... (Mandwaali nahee ho sakti) any compromise in this compromise immigration bill.
Or
We forget the who CIR thing and plan for something else.
There are uglier things than sausages being made. For example, when Bernie Sanders gave a 30 minute speech to increase H1B fees and make H1B program useless, he brought a big chart and the whole enchilada to try to prove that H1B depresses wages.
However, in the starting part of his speech, he said he supports the bill.
The bill brings in 200,000 guest-workers each year (it was 400,000 before Bingaman amendment). However, according to him, that is just fine. When guest-workers come to US in numbers like 200,000 then they dont depress wages of the lowest income group in America. However, when hi-tech workers come here they depress wages.
This is the kind of logic from people like Bernie Sanders and Co. that is uglier than watching sausages being made. Watching sausages being made might hurt your eyes, but this kind of logic hurts your head and can damage your brain's neurons.

First off it is quite frustrating with people not participating and not putting their money where their mouth is. However, on a constructive note, screaming at people for behaving the way they are behaving rarely gets them to meekly surrender and start doing the right thing. Whether people do it out of their own free will or after persuasion, it take courage for people to participate. What works is to look at the problem and not to personalize the issue. So poor participation is the issue. If you are consistently not getting enough people to attend then it makes sense to delay the frequency of the meetings as one option. The other option is to call people and ask why they were unable to attend and give them a chance to come for the next meeting. Maybe the projection of rounding up x people was based on poor assumptions. So setting realistic expectations and then building momentum from there is the key. This is a dry tough fight. We need to set up tangible goals which break the vision down yet show the grassroot level people how the baby steps will lead to success. Most people in my opinion, back off because they do not see a realistic connection between the baby steps and the final vision. I think if we treat this like a challenge and try to understand the underlying problems, this movement will have a better chance at success. Regards, JH

Because H4 visa holders can not legally work many of them work illegaly. It is very difficult choice they make, but thei somethimes don't have any other option. I have a friend who start working on J2 visa when her husbant was on J1, but after he changed to H1B she had to obtain H4. Because of the financial reasons she continued to work. She is a very smart and good person and I will be very angry and dissepointed at homeland security if they will not let her stay here and obtain green card.

Look at last paragraph
We will be working very hard to try to get some meaningful H and EB relief next week during the potentially short "lame duck" session. It is not yet clear whether Congress will actually try to pass any appropriations bills or whether they will merely pass a "continuing resolution" and leave the legislating until 2007. We will keep you posted.

If you liked the Aussie immigration so much, how come you are back in the US and in the GC nightmare?
I'm assuming you are in the US now, and caught in this whole GC nightmare. If not, please ignore my mesg.
The US Immigration Law is a nightmare.
Couple of years ago, I migrated to Australia.
blah, blah
Here the US Government cries about anti-discrimination, human rights etc, but those are only eye-wash. They should take lessons from the Australians.

Good that some parts of main stream media are tracking issues on EB green cards.
I don't want to raise/discourage everyone's hopes, but the post is relying on a leader, who lost count to this houses & has the track record of flip-flopping a lot about number of issues & who is hated among veterans even though he himself is a veteran.
However this gives a great opportunity to IVians, with respect to making EB issue visible to MSM (MainStream Media); Pretty soon there will be a debate between Sen Obama & Sen McCain; Similar to party debates, I guess there will be youtube videos, with polling involved. If we work towards pushing the issue towards debate (by creating & voting on these videos), then candidates & parties may start taking serious look at it and we may see light at the end of the tunnel (hopefully not an incoming train).

I understand that you guys are frustrated but I did not open this thread to make empty noise. I have written to six different organisations and ACLJ only gave me a reply that they would be unable to process our per courntry quota lawsuit. There are thousands of federal court immigration lawyers in the country who would do this lawsuit albeit with more money than these non profit organisations. If any of you guys want to make a difference in your lives and lives of others pls co-ordinate this event of contacting various immigration lawyers.

I am not sure how MBPS is better than the system we have now . At least in the present system every one in each category gets their turn .
With the new point system A person from india may not get green card even if one has 100 points and a person from Bangladesh may get green card if that person has 50 points. On top of that in new system application gets trashed if one does not get his GC in the year he or she applied.
Any given year there would be more than 38500 people who could get close to 100 points from india whether they are employable or not ...
If country based caps are removed then I would agree that its true merit based system or MBS otherwise its just another BS...
