I got the following email from my friend. Thought I would share it here.
Folks,
As most of you might know, there are a number of Immigration reform bills that are in various stages of their life in the US Congress. There is this 1 particular bill which is really important to people like us - Employment based legal immigrants from India & China: Bill 5882.
Highlights of the bill that are of use to EB applicants:
1) Would recapture unused Visas from past years and roll them over from one fiscal year to another.
2) EB 1, 2, 3 would become current and would remain current for quite a few years
I know some of you might have already got your greencard. But I am sure you know a number of others, many of them your close relatives and friends, who are stuck in this queue for a long time. If not for yourself, please take action for them.
Action needed:
1) Please go to
http://www.opencongress.org/bill/110-h5882/show
Register your email address and vote YES for the bill.
How this helps: Online polling is an easy way for senators to gauge the popularity of a bill. If all the EB applicants were to VOTE yes, it
would take the number over 200,000 easily. The most popular bill has around 7000 votes. A bill on opencongress.com having 50,000 votes
is sure to garner a lot of attention.
2) Forward this email to all your friends and relatives who will benefit from this bill.
Only a systematic, organized online campaign would only us all to get LEGAL PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS in the USA.
Thanks for your time!
