Forum: Pending Immigration Legislation

Multiple news sources are reporting that Senators Schumer and Graham have now struck a deal and are about to take it to the President to get him to sign off on it. That meeting is supposed to take place this week. If as expected the President agrees, then we could see a bill introduced as early as...

Something must be cooking, its already the 11th and no visa bulletin yet!

Ron, I know you are slowly losing hope on CIR but what do you think about this? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100306/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_immigration_obama Do you think something can happen in the next 3-4 months?

job bill has passed and health care will pass soon ....... and there are like 7 -8 month until mid term election they have plently of time !!!!! CIR debate should last about 1 - 2 month because CIR has been debated to death

Republican get mad and block CIR becuase DEM use reconiliation on health care reform is this likely to happen?

I just finished listening to the health care summit. I think that the chances of Republicans signing on to the idea of health care legislation are somewhere between slim and none. The two side are clearly as far apart as ever. At the conclusion, the president seemed to offer the Republicans "a...

As of today, there are at most 76 legislative days left for the Senate until the Labor Day recess. Since this is an election year, it is likely that Congress will adjourn shortly after Labor Day in order to allow members to campaign for re-election full time. So, at most, we have 76 legislative...

I've been saying for more than a year that if the Dems don't act on immigration, they are going to get hammered in November. Check out this article, and expect to see more of the same: http://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics/AP/story/1481552.html

Hi Ron, What we can conclude by these State of the Union address of President Obama and he had only 18 words regarding immigration and core values. I think Obama is busy with Jobs and other things we are here legal immigrants suffering for nothing, at least they should do the visa re capture,...

Hi ALL, has anyone heard about Any update on any new bills re Visa Recapture or CIR? Any idea how the latest change in MA would impact any possible CIR?

Hi Ron, Is this news true. CIR to be introduced next week??? http://www.counterpunch.org/lawrence01212010.html

if they apply for TPS, will they be able to apply for green card if CIR passed?

if CIR PASSED how can they prove that they have been in this country for a long time? i think most of them dont have document how will they get legalize if they dont have any proof?

for example people who come to u.s. as student visa etc.. and want a green card willl they be able to apply for green card too?
