S. 1932 Status
- Thread starter sunjoshi
- Start date
we should not expect anything good in the visa bulletin unless there is some changes in the law of this land. So, please keep up your efforts in uprising the law makers about visa retrogression and its harmful effects.
I emailed all IL lawmakers. I also faxed them using isnaameric site. On the last page when I submitted it gave me a message that fas has been sent to the following members but it did not list any underneath the message. So, has it gone to the intended lawmakesr or ?

Bad news for the time being
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051110/ap_on_go_co/budget_cuts_1
But the things that derailed this bill are
<<cuts to Medicaid, food stamps and student loans>>
and there is no mention of immigration relief. In fact immigration clauses have not yet been added to it. Since this is a major effort by Republicans to cut the spending, my guess is that they will come up again very soon with some compromise within their own party. So no need of losing heart.
In the meanwhile we shloud continue our efforts to contact the members of congress.

It is not the end of H.R. 4241.
Roy Blunt's (R) said on the floor that the HR 4241 will be back on floor next week for Vote. The Republicans will have to drop some more items in order to have safe passage of the bill. If the bill passes in the House the Conference commitee will sit in the next week to clear the bill and send it to president for his signature.
Let's again pray that it comes on the floor next week.

It will definitely pass next week. In the meanwhile we should double our efforts to contact the members of congress to get the immigration relief clauses of S. 1932 included in this bill.

God Forbid
Hi,
GOD FORBID a million times, what happens if the House is not able to clear the bill?
I mean it seems kinda weird that one house passes one version and the other house just scraps it. Surely there are a LOT more imp issues in the bill that need to be passed, other than our immigration reforms (S1932 i mean).

Guys:
Relax. It is very rare for the house NOT to pass any kind of budget bill. That would officially shut down the govt. What we are seeing now is political brinkmanship. The President is republican, House has majority of republicans. They will come back with a watered down version and then the democrats will feel victorious / vindicated and pass the bill.
Of course the Senate Bill does not have any meaning untill this is passed eventually. I think this is just a temporary political setback.
Doubt?
I seriously doubt HR4241 will pass in the floor. I watched C-SPAN now. All Democrats and including moderate republicans are not happy with the content of the bill, in the present form, because it cuts medicar, student loan, ect..
Hmm. Keep the fingers crossed till Tuesday.
