Folks it is very simple to send faxes at ISN America, took only 2-3 minutes to send faxes from multiple states to about 10+ senators. wish they had some customization of message option though.


Now that the 4241 is passed it is really now or never with a little effort from all of us, these faxes could make a difference between getting this S.1932 included.

spend 5 minutes now
or
wait for 5-10 years for GC
or
go back to your country choices are very clear.

Wake Up!!!


even if you already did send you can send it again as long as the limit of 5(just noticed they reduced it to 3 today) is not reached and you can send it from 5 different states to get it across to 15 senators etc. if you got 10 email ids, yours,parents, spouse, kids anyone this is the time to use it and each person can cover all 50 states in US.

S.1932 fax from ISNAmerica took 2 min/10 fax, registration is simple takes only 30-50 sec and another 1 minute to send the faxes, choose all option in the list


Folks who are not able to do it today, please take out time time on the weekend so that when they return to their offices on Monday, their office is flooded with this and they are bound to read it. Use your friends zip, old Zip, Physician friends you need to use Dr. in front of your first Name at ISNAmerica to emphasize that even physicians who are needed in US and there is a termendous shortage suffer because of this.
posting the states are important too, so that we are sure all the states are covered, this is only to cover the base and shouldn't stop if one person has covered that state as we want tons of faxes on each ones table. let them know that it matters to us. I will make a list of the states covered as I see from the thread and please update the state in the list as you send

Subject: Inclusion of S.1932 section 8001 in final legislation of budget reconciliation for enactment into law

Dear Honorable Congressman,

Quick facts -

• Please note that this letter has nothing to do with illegal immigrants but highlights retrogression issues with employment based immigration petitions (green cards) which have been moved back by 7-8 years. This kind of retrogression promotes employer taking advantages, keeping employees at low wages for longer durations as it restricts employment change.

• This is also NOT ABOUT increasing the existing worldwide green card quota, but, is an appeal to include the following relief measures as entailed in S. 1932 Sec 8001 passed already by the honorable Senate–

o Recapturing the unused employment based green card numbers from previous years (due to processing delays).
o Implement measures to stop further dilution of already short employment based green card pool by not counting each dependant separately towards the quota count.
o Measures to allow filing of I-485 (adjustment of status to permanent residence) despite retrogression with additional fees of $500 for each application for a later adjudication when quota numbers become available.

American businesses and legal immigrants (Information technology professionals, Health care professionals, physicians, scientist, government contractors and many others who contribute towards the national interest and economy) are facing an enormous crisis which is not in the long term interest of the Unites States in maintaining it’s lead as a superpower in science & technology, medicine, education and other fields; the crisis being “Lengthy Employment Immigration Backlogs to the tune of 7-8 years due to retrogression in the Employment Based category". Please note that this has NOT BEEN caused due to a sudden spike of excess immigrant green card applications. This has been caused due to various processing delays at Department of Labor and the USCIS (which was formerly the INS) due to a heavily overburdened and overwhelmed system resulting in a huge backlog of immigrant green card applications piling up. Also, please note that the persons in queue for years have either passed or are passing the strictest tests and scrutiny as per law to ensure that they are being chosen after employers have not been able to find adequate numbers of suitable professionals in the local job market. These potential immigrants are potential job creators and are complementing the American workforce. If these professionals had remained in their home countries (or go back to) they would be doing those very jobs there instead of here in the US thus leading to acceleration in outsourcing and an eventual shift of jobs away from US shores. The $500 specila fee per application creates revenue additionally.

I would like to bring your attention to this article which states the importance of immigrants in a vibrant 21st century American economy –

http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/2005-11-15-inner-cities-usat_x.htm?csp=26

Inclusion if S. 1932 Sec 8001 in the final legislation simply gives a chance to those legal law abiding and lawfully present in United States professionals waiting for years in line due to processing delays to get a fair chance of getting a green card. This would enable them to move on with their lives & productively contribute to the American economy without the feeling of constant insecurity and uncertainty which promotes savings to take back to home country rather than spending it here. This in effect will generate much larger revenue for the U.S. Govt. and in fact avoid the process of cutting grants/funding for other existing and yet useful programs.

Mr. Tom Ridge, ex chief of Homeland Security said in April 14, 2003: "As we secure America from terrorists, we do not want to risk losing the next Enrico Fermi or Albert Einstein…We would be a far poorer nation in many, many ways...."

We appreciate your positive viewpoint towards the inclusion of Section 8001 of S.1932 in the bill.

Sincerely,

Article notes from USA Today whose link is given in the letter above –

Immigrant businesses can have wide economic impact
By Edward Iwata, USA TODAY
Large numbers of immigrants and their businesses in U.S. inner cities often spark growth in jobs and household incomes — and even broader economic activity in those locales, according to a study released Tuesday.
According to Harvard Business School professor Michael Porter, in his study, Porter found that the 5.5 million immigrants who live in inner cities are key catalysts to economic growth and urban investment.
The immigrants "change the very face of entrepreneurship in inner cities" and "provide a much-needed shot of economic vibrancy to distressed neighborhoods," said Porter, who has advised Congress and the White House.
Job growth in 10 U.S. inner cities with high immigrant populations outpaced job growth in their broader metropolitan statistical areas, or MSAs. The cities: Anaheim, Long Beach, Oakland, San Jose, Calif.; Portland, Ore.; Seattle; Tulsa; St. Petersburg, Fla.; Winston-Salem, N.C.; and Jersey City.
• Inner-city businesses in the 100 largest U.S. cities provide 8.1 million jobs, or 8% of U.S. private employment.
• The average inner city wage has grown 1.8% to $39,300 from 1995 to 2003, outpacing average wage growth of 1.7% in metropolitan statistical areas.

only 2 states, not more than that

Hi,

I could only do for 2 states via weblink fax. It does not let me do to fax more. Is this correct? What is the other alternative?


Thanks
 
it appears that Ravi Kota at ISNAmerica is putting restrictions eveyday now

Never mind 2 states are good too, can you please share the states to update the list.
looks like my note to ISNAmerica with these link has turned out negative when I did the first one I could do 5 faxes, which went to 3 and now to 2.

I do not think so!! Pls read the content clearly..It is for good only..

Hi Nato

I do not think so!! Pls read the content clearly..It is for good reasons only..

They clearly mentioned in the website
the reason behind that magic no...
If anybody reads taht content, i hope people understand why that number is changing ...And i can see the following content in members Panel..
DO not think ur link/note does influence negatively ...Rather it helps...
That is what i understood by seeing their forum at isnamerica.org/forum

The following message is from tehir website members panel::

--------------------------------------------->>>


Please note this WebFax Service is limited per member and can be used only 4 times.
The reason behind this number, we chose for limit: To avoid bottlenecks/hence to avoid fax delays. More faxes in less time will end up with fax delays.
For ex: California State has 50 Senators/Congressmen, With limit 2: a California member can use this service 2 times with "ALL" option & It is equal to sending 100 faxes.
We monitor the fax stats with our fax account tools, and may vary this Limit: 4, depends on load.
Bestbet is to Invite our friends to use this service, so that load will be distributed equally among the hours and we can avoid Fax delays.
We make sure all of our Faxes will be delivered in 2(Best Case) to 10(Worst Case) minutes time frame, and it is very much possible by continuously monitoring the faxstats and varying this limit
