HR 3012 general discussion since April 2012

[pappu]

Update:
There has been lot of false information and theories being circulated on the internet and we are posting to quell all those because none are correct and have any idea what is really going on. Please stop paying attention to such false information. A lot of antis are also spreading false information and discouraging people from getting actively involved. It is in our interest to stay on course in these important times. The bill is in a good place. Negotiations take time and it is a tiring process. Just because you do not see anything does not mean nothing is going on. It took 1 year of hectic work in the house to bring the bill late last year in the House. Majority of the people only have seen bill news starting to show up a few weeks before it was passed and do not know what went before it was introduced. Just getting a bill written is a big effort and achievement for all of us. Then getting is introduced and taken up is a big challenge. Advocating to getting it passed with a big majority vote was a next to impossible task. And all of us in Immigration voice got it done through our continued support. We were not posting updates on the bill for the entire year while working on the bill. Likewise we will not be posting updates to satisfy curiosity of few people who do not fully understand the political advocacy process or to satisfy the curiosity of antis who will use the information to work against the bill.

What can each one of us do: These are testing times of our patience and persistence. The one that is most patient and persistence always wins. One cannot continue to make such effort each single day without continued support of the community. We are in IV core working harder than it was when the bill was publicly voted. Behind the scene work is a lot of work each day and requires lot of strategy, smart thinking and maturity.In order for us to continue this effort we need each one of us to pitch in and contribute for us to continue this effort with more intensity. More resources mean more advocacy and thus can expect quicker results. Signing up for monthly contributions is most important so that we can come out as winners and lack of resources do not become an impediment to investing in advocacy work. This post is to urge each one of us not to lose hope because we have not. We only ask for your support so that this motivation gives us the much needed boost in our work ahead. Once you have finished this action item, please add in your signature or post on the thread with subscription number to show support and motivate others. This action item is very critical for our success and is urgent.

Thank you

Friends,
Whoever got frustrated, disppointed or defeated,, Here are updates.
Bill is in good place, lots of efforts are going on..
Lift your inner power of faith and victory with help of god.
Spread words.. Get more people involved on this.

Although I am very positive and have complete faith on IV admin, want to ask polite question:
Should we start flower compaign during Senate recess? In 15 days without mocking or teasing Senators, we can make very polite request to pass this in Senate.
Rest assure,We will not do anything until IV admin approves.
Simple 'Y' or 'N' from IV Admin without any justification will be suffice for us.

Somebody please advise on this. I use the paypal so dont know about recurring contribution directly with credit card. By the way paypal is pretty safe. Did you have any specific issues with them?

You do not need PayPal account to contribute. On the PayPal page just enter your credit card number and PayPal will take it.

Another method is to pay by check. You can write a check and mail it to IV address. But we prefer monthly recurring. It helps us estimate budget ahead of time .

No. We have to be very careful in every step. Lobbying and more lobbying is what we need.
