Conservatives block immigration conference (June 8, 2006)-
By Jonathan Allen
Senate conservatives have emerged as the chief obstacle to an immigration conference committee, but the bill�s backers insist they will be able to get around the hard-liners.
GOP leaders need the assent of the conservatives to circumvent a parliamentary hurdle arising from the bill�s inclusion of tax provisions, which, according to the Constitution, must originate in the House. Conservatives have yet to sign off.
�I�m not anxious to move it to conference,� Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), chairman of the conservative Republican Steering Committee, said yesterday. �The more we study the final product, the more convinced I am that it is seriously flawed.�
Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) said that he would think about being helpful to the leadership but that he�d �consider trying to block it, too.�
The Senate passed its version of immigration legislation last month. The bill would bolster border security, create a �path to citizenship� for illegal aliens currently in the country and establish a guest-worker program.
Many on the right would prefer a version more like the House bill, which focuses solely on strengthening border security.
A thicket of procedural snags has prevented the appointment of conference negotiators to this point.
If the Senate bill is sent to the House, it would be subject to a �blue slip� � a vote of the House to reject it because it violates the Constitution�s �origination� clause on tax matters. The easiest way around a blue slip is for the Senate to take up a House-passed tax bill, strip out the existing provisions, insert the immigration bill into its shell and pass it.
But Republican leaders have been unable to win unanimous consent to execute the maneuver, and such a complex series of moves would give opponents several filibuster opportunities. While cautiously covering their flanks, Republican and Democratic leaders are working to get the bill to conference.
The bill�s supporters say that if they can make significant progress on a deal they will be able to overcome their opposition.
�I think we�re making progress,� Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) said yesterday. �We�re not there yet.�
Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.), a harsh critic of the Senate bill, said yesterday that he will not block efforts to move to conference.
�I want a bill,� Ensign said.
�You�ve got to have a conference,� said Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.). �If it comes out close to this [Senate bill], we�ll do everything to kill it.�

I'm in the similar situation as indian111.
I filed for my wife's EAD in the late May (e-file TSC).
Receipt date is May 29th.
Soft LUD on June 6th
FP done on June 21st
no updates, no changes after that. there is no LUD after FP. It's been 66 days since filed. Does any one know if I can take Infopass appointement before I complete 90 days of pending status and see what's going on? Or do I have to wait until 90 days are complete? any experiences?
pappusheth
EFiled on 29th May and still waiting. Opened a SR yesterday and lets see what happens.
The good thing is now we are seeing some approvals, so i think everything is back moving again.

Wow!!! I wish I could have attended this mesmarizing rally experience. Now can you guys come up with more data on who (Rally member) met who (Law makers / Media Persons ) and how those meetings were and what opinions you heard at least verbally. What we could successfully conveyed particularly to law makers etc...
While we need to collate all the lawmaker meetings data, PLEASE DO NOT post any meeting details on the forum. We do not want to make any of the confidential data public.
We shall let you all know how we wish to collect the information.
Thank You.

THanks for this info.Do you know how much time it takes to complete the translation ?
It depends on the service you choose, I think they have an option for expedited service and you can get the document within couple of days. They also provide you the pdf format of the document, you can print that document and submit immediately instead of waiting for the postal document.

Just happen to see your signature file and found that you have a RD around end of June 2007 at TSC. I think we can use it as data reference to say TSC processing time will go to at least end of June 2007, from 04/30/2007. That is probably a good news for whose files in TSC.

1. With due respect to Mr Gotcher, the letter does not address audits but gives the impression that even cases without audits are being processed randomly which is not necessarily true.
2. The tone towards DOL is accusatory and rather harsh. This would make them defensive and the letter seems to insinuate that they are doing this maliciously and are incompetent, both of which do not help our cause.
3. The letter should instead address the backlog and ask for DOL's cooperation in resolving the back log ASAP.
4. There is a typo in the letter "noT being processed" (paragraph # 2)
Just my $ 0.02

All,
I have created a letter template (linked below), I have a couple questions that I have put in the comments so you guys can provide some input.
I am going to create another template that you can use to fill in your name and other related information (naidu2543 brought up a good point and I am somewhat skeptical on adding the case number. Admins, any input?). I think we should all have hand-written signature (not typed) in that letter.
I am going to provide a fax number and email address, where each one of you can send the signed sheet.
I think there should be a benchmark for the signature, before we can send it out. From the polls, I see 69 people said that they would support the initiative, I think its reasonable to expect at least 65 people will send their signatures, before we can send the letter out.

Please review the letter and let us know if you have any input to the questions I have in the letter.
WaitingBoy, I added your case and the link has the updated file.

One of my close friends is considering running the DC 10 miler with me. She never ran or walked a race before. Hopefully she will decide to atleast walk before the end of the day. That will be good for both of us
I partnered with my aunt to walk the SF 5K as well. now I really need to partner with someone who can run the Houston 1/2 marathon with me.
Hi Santb1975,
We are working up to it, and either GoIV or myself may partner with you to run/walk the Houston Half. Working on it now :) will keep you posted!

Team IV has significant participation from females. We might be even leading in participation. Here is why I say that
needhelp - Team IV is proud to have her participate with her daughter and her husband
Texanmom - Another great asset to our Team.
santb1975 - 3 out of the 4 members I recruited are female and that includes me. I partnered up with Nola to make this campaign successful as well and I will be partcipating in all three events we picked and may be more. Thanks to my Endurance :-). My friend who is volunteering her time for Team IV is a female as well.
We have more ladies joining us soon. Watchout :p
I know that females are disproportionately represented in these forums - even so.........I would like to see more women participate. Going forward, I will give $10 towards even female who signs up (upto 10 memberships). If you cannot find company, exercise with a cell phone and pepper spray on you.

I couldn't find any of your blogs in IV blogs!
Anyway as someone suggested can you post all of your transactions in the last one week, atleast. Did you gain or lose?
What is the percentage profit you made since you started day trading, last year, last three months, last month, last week, etc.
I am blogging right here on IV blogs . Check IV blogs and you will see my posts there.
I will try and post watches here on the blogs too.

Both in the job advertisements and Form9089, it is said: minimum of master degree or alternate of bachelor degree plus 2 years' experience.
The LC has been approved in the August of last year, I-140 (EB2) has been filed thereafter, still pending.
How do we file a new application for Eb3 since the original LC has been filed in the last EB2 application?
Is there a way to file an amendment of the pending EB2 to EB3? In this case, can we hire a new lawyer?
Some people has got a RFE, but some just got denied directly, so I am worried.
Can I hire a new lawyer to file a new application for Eb3 using the same LC? but we do not have the original LC? I remember I read somewhere that if we file a new application with request of a duplication of LC, then we cannot file I-140 and I-485 concurrently. In my case, I am desperate to catch the deadline of 8/17, because my H1B is going to expire and reach the maximum.
Please help!
1. What was mentioned in the job advertisements - was the alternate Bachelors+2 years mentioned
2. How long as it been since the last advertisement
3. Can they file another I-140 concurrently with I-485 using the recently approved labor
4. I agree with abhijitp you can get a RFE too
My suggestion would be to apply in EB3 even though the job advertisement reads masters or Bachelors with 2 years and use the option 3
I request you guys to consult a good attorney immediately and help your selves and also save time.
Please consult an attorney for your good.

1) I think what he meant was to take part in the democratic process in the country that you live in. You cannot take part in the democratic process of your native land if you don't live there now can you?
2) I think he means the risk of loosing the GC status and getting deported. Not losing the citizenship of the original country is not the issue. He is emphasizing on the vulnerability.
Not great reasons for some...
Q 1: What if one's native country is also a democracy?
Q 2: If one is already a citizen of democratic country other than US and same scenario will happen then one's kids will not have revoked citizenship (That other country's) as well if one decides to maintain his/her original citizenship ...
