H-1B visa reform and Our Mission

[bijualex29]

With the situation currently we are facing on H-1B, in my opinion congress may do some quick fix before the CIR implementation. Reforming the H-1B visa, I do not think any thing is wrong in that. In this process of reforming H-1B visa, can we incorporate our mission of at least filing I-485 without visa availability?
Is this too much to ask?

I think we need reform. Current H1B system is employer dependant and make us slave. There should be more breathing space.

Something like HSMP should come. In particular, the Fresh gradutes should be allowed to start their career in a honest way, not with the manipulted resumes designed/manufactured by almighty desi consultants.

I think this thread is really good start. I think the inherent problem is not the fact that H1B is temporary and ppl want GC. Basic problem is ppl want the right to be able to work for who they want and they want the same for their spouses. This can be addressed by H1B reform also. But I think it will be an uphill battle because most businesses get captive employees by way of H1B visa and would be the real losers in case of a reform.
