Any idea when this is going for voting?
Democrats are supporting this or not?
I would strongly suggest everyone to acquaint himself/herself with the legislative process and how a bill moves through different phases / steps before it becomes a law. You can find many postings documenting the process.
Right now it is just introduced in the senate. The problem for us is that Sen Durbin is Democratic Whip (i.e. Assistant Majority Leader) which gives him tremendous influence over garnering votes and referring which legislation to consider to the Majority Leader (Harry Reid in the Senate). Ultimately Reid decides which legislation get priority consideration. The fact that Grassley is a Republican and is close to the Minority Leader (I think) does not help us either. We will monitor the progress of the bill.

gimmi green,
I am wondering how did you do that? I am in same situation but I always thought that you have to stay with the company who has filed your 140./ I have 140 approved and wasting my time with the company every day but at the same time started real estate business with my partner part time. I am wondering if there is any way to keep your green card going and at the same time work for your comoany. I really appricate your insight.
Thank you.
gimmi green - Don't you see green around you. Let me tell you how to get green
1) Use your credit history to purchase additional home in Florida. House purchase in 150000 will be 250000 in year. The market was like that a year back. It takes 8 months to get a house. There is a big line.
2) Open your own e-business. File E visa. 1/4 million should be easy money if you have stayed here for 10 years.
3) House listing in only done by realtor. Give option to customer. For fun open a site for people to list their house for sale. Give them free service then charge. Live American way.
4) Make school in Village. I have made one. I enjoy supporting the school. Grow India.
5) Don't worry about GC. Do something. Registering a site takes some $35 or 40. Built you site. Use American brain.
Am I doing it? Yes.. Did I make money? Yes.
Ensoy.

I have tried to put my career goals ahead of the dollar conversion rate (not always easy). Because i took up new roles and salary , i have had to restart the GC process a couple of times. As a result i am still without GC despite being here for more than 10 years and having two masters degrees from US. I am sure this is a common story here.
I am heading towards a another change and now have very little patience for restarting the process. I am glad many people on this forum have voluntered to help pack. I will be getting in touch with you in a few months.

6. Rep. Lamar Smith (R.-Tex.)
Recently named to U.S. Border Control�s �Honor Roll� for his perfect voting record on immigration and border issues. His 1996 Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act mandated implementation of a national exit-entry tracking system for all aliens but is not near completion.
5. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D.-Calif.)
Supports stiffening penalties for alien smugglers and increasing number of border control agents. Last week announced new legislation to crack down on the construction or financing of tunnels into the U.S. Sees guest-worker program as a �magnet for continued illegal immigration.� Told Human Events that if we can build a fence along the entire Mexican border, we should.

Once said that President Bush is an obstacle to immigration reform and that Bush's "open door" border policy is a threat to national security.

The best way to respond this kind of people is to ignore them....
If you are successful, certain people will complain and make up stories how you became successful.
If you fail, the same people will makeup stories how dumb you are etc...
The best way, in my opinion, is to ignore these fools.
Those who are writing negative about IV and their leaders, do not have slightest idea on how much sacrifices they have made (family time, financially, physically, mentally etc) so that most of us could be benefited out of it. If these people think they are not benefited or does not like the idea, please don't read those post or just ignore them and move on, go to the posts that you would be benefited from and logout, I personally would like these people to share their experience and answer questions by others with their best of their knowledge, but if you can�t do that, please don't demoralize others.

Like I said, you have to give some credit to the Irish. They have the chutzpah of going to lawmaker's offices in DC and say "I am an illegal...I broke the laws and overstayed my visa...please change to law to make everything ok again for me please...". And our community thinks that someone is listening to their phone conversation about how to raise money and lobby for the legal immigrants?????
I think it all boils down to how desparate we are for GCs, many people here on H1 just want to count their valid H1 visa and multiply them by thier montly savings,
but Irish and many illegals itz a do or die situation they are smart people to knock on law makers door, before law-enforcing people knock on thier doors

Nope. You are misunderstanding the point again.
The Article clarifies that that Congress has the power to regulate immigration. they used the power and created the INS laws we have today, which as per Congress is the hallmark of US immigration. We have to change those laws specific to EB.
You are muddling immigration laws with civil rights. Your argument about the current law being in violation of ANY constitutional right is completely baseless. You did not respond to my question about how the civil rights clauses you quoted have anything to do with immigration.
There are far too many points here to address at one go. Let me touch upon this for starters:
The Article 1, Section 8 has this clause, regarding the power of congress:
Clause 4: To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization
Are we disputing the fact that congress has the power to establish a uniform rule of naturalization?
No. We are not. We are just saying, that the current Rule of Naturalization is in violation of the discrimination clause in the constitution, and ought to be disregarded. We are not asking to strip congress of this power, so this argument you make is not relevant. Agreed?

Thanks for the reply and it is not an subsitute it is an original case .so your suggesting that my PD should be May 2007 instead of April 2001. But the problem is that attorney filed the labor certification in 2001 without obtaining the PW and now the PW has come up 71656/- so there is a huge gap what I was getting in 2001 and then we requested PW for the last years from 2001 onwards and now they are telling that they can not do it also if we download the PW from the archives it is still much more than the PW send by DOL. so is there any way to get the PW for those years in back. I hired a new and very capable attorney but what he is suggesting that if we could the PW for 2001 what we applied in application then it is a piece of cake. My occupational code is 15-1031 and it I filed from California, LA county. I will really appreciate for your guidance and suggestion

It reminds me this story every time I visit IV.
Workers working with an export company which use to ship chickens from all over the world to US/Europe, were packing chickens from some Indian port. Each box was having some 50-70 chickens in it .
After loading them in, they were about to cover these boxes with the tops. The leader shouts to workers: " No need to put the tops. They wouldn't go any where "
Surprised with this order, one worker asks the leader 'Why'. The leader says : " These are Indian chickens. IF one tries to escape, other will pull its leg."
Good One :D
We should concentrate on taking actions. I believe taking a small step in action is better than talking big.

I agree with this, we should definitely do this.
Since IV has contact e-mails for all its members, it can also send periodic e-mails on its activities, funding drives, recent achievements and ask for the members to contibute. This will be helpful for those who dont visit the site very often. For Example, recent update given by pappu inspired me to sign up for monthly contribution. But that would happen only if i visited the site very often. I would have missed it if i am not a regular visitor to the site.

I believe it will be the same old story. They will wait till last quarter and then will waste thousands of visa numbers because of their darn slow processing hands and we people will again start talking optimism from Oct 2010.
What happened to the IV's talk with USCICS on spillover policies? Does anybody know?
That seems to be the way where this is heading. Would this be another july fiasco?.

Good to know...good job guys...
Just got back from the rally, i would say it was a big success. Media coverage on the issue was fantastic. I saw the ABC7 news truck. There were many reporters from SJ Mercury news, SF Chronicle etc. Crowd was good, dont want to speculate on numbers yet but we should have an official word soon.
Police were very friendly. The crowd was very enthusiastic and also obeyed the rules. All of us stayed on side walks. Logiclife and Frankilin among others were there. Many reporters spread out and spoke to people.
Lot of members from another groups called Immigration Rights also joined us.
We got lot of honks. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Great JOB IV and everyone.

Hardwork of immigrants is the bedrock of American society. If seen in that light it makes perfect sense. "We deserve," this thought also ties into the Pygmalion theory. That is the American way. This is not a collective but an individualistic society, unless you showcase your achievments they won't be fully acknowledged. Unless you show that you deserve nobody is going to give it to you.
On another note, I give my example, I changed my job last year and relocated. I don't work for a consultant either. My earlier priority date was Sept. 2002 but I was willing to make a move and not be held hostage to retrogression. I knew it would be tough and many of my friends on H1-B thought it was a bad decision. Atleast, now I won't regret not making a decision. This maybe an isolated example but my old employer hired two American workers to replace me. Maybe its because we work harder or maybe because its both, smarter and harder. As JFK said,"We want to go to the Moon not because it is eazy but because it is hard." We deserve as much as born citizens if not more based on our contribution to this great nation of immigrants.
