After watching Senator Kennedy say that the "highly skilled" are adequately taken care of under the H1-B program and thus that there is no need to work on EB amendments, then watching Bernie Sanders have his anti-H1 amendment passed under the guise of a scholarship program not to mention his claim that H1 workers replace laid off American workers, and to have Dorgan (the master of the poison pill amendment that probably killed the bill "for now") rail against the H1 program while constantly complaining that "fruit of the loom" underwear is no longer made in the USA and to see Senator Ensign's effort to reform the merit system to give high skilled workers more points shot down, one can safely conclude we have little chance attaching provisions for our cause to other bills. Any attempt to try to pass pro-legal legislation will likely meet strong opposition from the pro-undocumented lobby, not to mention the propaganda disseminated by NumbersUSA, Alipac and Co., IEEE etc etc who have managed to sneak in their provisions into CIR. Unless we can lobby stronger and dispel the myths perpetuated by these groups we face a very uphill battle. Recently these groups have been quoting a Tata executive saying that they pay their H1 workers lower wages than an American would receive. When the pro-legal immigrant groups fail to counter these accusations or fails to deny them, then they become accepted and give leeway to restrictionists to accept them as fact when they are not.

I would love to attend the rally. However my financial condition at this time does not permit me. I could have booked a ticket on my credit card but all my cards are max out!
You want to know why I am in this financial deep hole? Well, I have two sons in college and paying out of state tuition, that is over $17,000 per semester for both of them.
My wife on H4 could not work until now that she has an EAD. It is retrogression that I should blame and I would love to do all in my power to obtain relief or bring the issue to the attention of the American public.
In my own way I have contributed to IV both in cash and in kind. I have told me story in countless media interviews. I only wish I could do more for IV financially but alas I am not able to do that at this time.
I would be in the rally in spirit....only I wish I could attend in person.
Please share what's on your mind! What is preventing you from wanting to attend? What will it take to change your mind? A lot of us are willing to work with you, donate money, transportation, housing, etc to get you to attend! Let us know and we will help make your trip easy, painless and even free. We just would love to have you! Please post on this thread or PM, we will make it work for you!!!

Based on Visa Bulletin report, it seems like massive retrogression is likely for EB3 as well as EB2 :( for the rest of the year. Many have ported and some hibernating applications are now active. :(

People were very happy with the last USCIS announcement but we all forgot about pain of people who are stuck in years of backlog. Though some of those unfortunate may have used harsh or improper language, but they had all the right to express their feelings. We all talk about Gandhian philosophy, but we need to be more tolerant. Before we ask to ban anyone from our forum, please try to put yourself in their shoes.
Our fight is far from over, we should all fight for for in-justice made to people who are trapped in the bureaucracy.

Well, If you sign up for IV credit card, the contributor is not paying from his pocket. It's the bank, who is paying for him, and contributor will keep earning miles/reward point as with any other credit card so it should make ZERO difference for card holder.
Its like finding a advertising sponsor for any of the IV event,except this is one time effort.
the earning could be huge. lets do simple math.
Average CC monthly bill = $1000 , 2% of $1000= $20.
20 * 20k = 40K monthly contribution.
Now think how hard is it to raise 40K monthly using our regular fund raising ?
Basic problem with fund raising is, once person gets his EAD/GC , he stops visiting IV website, I am sure he/she still supports the cause by heart but it just happens that he does not visit this site and does not notice our fund raising drive ( and as a result, we call them selfish :p) .
But if he is carrying IV credit card , its very easy for him to pick up that CC and swipe every time he makes purchase and support the cause.
Hope you get an idea :).

Your post shows your ignorance on how things work on the capitol hill. SKIL was introduced on thursday June 29, 2006 in the house.
The congress was in recess (on the field) the entire last week. So effectively they were in the house for ONE day. What updates do you expect in this time?
I'm sorry to say but there is no reason for you to be in IV if you have no belief in them. So, stop posting divisive messages and get the hell out of here. That's the least you can do for our cause.
Don't you guys think there is no spark anymore in IV? Have you heard anything incourging from IV lately? Where is QGC or whatever there name is? Where is money?
Many many times members asked for update once in a while, but what u got , nothing.
Come one guys, stop dreaming.

I hope this amendment will pass as it was proposed by important senators like, Chairman of Judiciary committee Mr Leahy, Mr Cornyn, Mr Hatch. This alters the equation completely. If it passes, the total EB & Merit based visas are 387,000. The total EB visas as per old system will be 230K.
Merit based system: 247K (147 for newly created point based +90 K to clear backlogs)
Employer Sponsored System (as per amendment) = 140K
Therefore 230K is available as per old EB system. Apart from that, most of the EB1 and EB2 guys and the dependents of EB visa holders will be exempted from numerical limitations. This is the proposal we should support.
So you mean to say that 230K will be for backlog/year and the people who already filed in the old system will also be exempt from the cap if they belong to certain EB1 and EB2.
If the above is true then we should be in good shape as % per eb category is increased and masters exempt.

I think SKIL/CIR etc are all carrots for the "would be" immigrants to slog their ass off - ultimately, American Congress will only do something if
A. There is enough pressure from Business community to enact a change.
B. Persistent efforts by organization like Immigration Voice in educating the lawmakers and using lobbyists like QG&A to get our voices heard.
We have a legitimate cause but we have to use the right "modus operandi". We need each of the members of IV to go back and talk to their HR/Legal/Managers/VPs/CIOs etc to ensure that our voices are heard. Immigration Voice needs corporate backing and you can help here - make your employers aware of Immigration Voice and retrogression. Ask your employers to contact the Congressmen and Senators of your state on your behalf.
We need a legislative reform and the only way to achieve it is to make your voices heard and your opinion count.
