I have mentioned exactly what Section 8001 is WITH links to both 8001 and 8002
From immigration-law.com
Apparently there are some people in the immigrant community who misunderstand that the immigrant visa and H-1B recaptures or spouse/children special provisions may take effect soon. Passage of H.R. 4241 does not mean that the immigration bills have also passed the House. The H.R. 4241, unlike the Senate S.1932, did not include the immigration bills. Then why did the immigrant community monitor the passage of this bill? Both S. 1932 of the Senate and H.R. 4241 are two different versions of the same legislation named Omnibus Deficit Reduction Act ( also called Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) and unless the House bill, H.R. 4241, passes, the process of conference to compromise between the House bill and the Senate bill will not be commenced. Since the House bill did not include the immigration packet, while the Senate bill included immigration packet, the immigrant community wanted to see that the conference process would start as early as possible so that they will know whether the Congress will eventually accept the S. 1932 immigration packet and legislate it into a law.
In this regard, the passage of H.R. 4241 is not the end but the beginning of the process to get the Senate S.1932 immigration recapture bill be passed as part of the final version of the Ominibus Deficit Reduction Act. The Congress will go into the Thanksgiving holiday recess from next week and no voting sessions will start until next month. Due to another big holidays ahead, Christritmas and New Year, the Congress will have a very limited time to wrap up the legislative activities of the First Session of the 109th Congress. Report indicates that the conference process is likely to start next month when the Congress returns to the Hill. Since this is the beginning of the process to get the immigration bills accepted by the both Houses, the business, academic, and immigrant communities should expand their efforts for the next one week or so in order to assure that the current immigration clog be relieved as soon as possible.

Don't make this as an egoistic issue. Idea of starting new thread is to make sure that everyone goes to one thread and that way our efforts are converted to better results. Now if you guys want to stick with this thread please feel free to do so.
I don't think with that attitude we will get what we want.

guys be realistic
$$$$$ spekas louder and better than any thing, they should turn the eye and start thinking that there is big and real money. We are working for americans for enought time and every one by this time we know money is the one thing that matters.
These guys went to Iraq for oil. there is no question of sympathy or begging or bargaining from their views, just $$$$$$$$$$$$$,
throw a big bait and draft a letter and send to the committee members. This is the only option left for us nothing else left. No one (American) never cares if you die or alive, they want F--------- Money.
excuse me the language. By throwing this option, we are not going to loose any thing except money(but we gain peace of mind as per Rajiv)
Think big why they should give green card for you, you are legal, tax paying and law abiding another humanbeing , why they should give green card for you.

rightnow we wont mention $$$$ , i know its real money , but if we at this moment mention about $$$$, that will be in different way
first we'll go in same old manner, after that we can think of $$$$.
this is my opinion only,
if everyone wants to go with $$$$ in our draft letter, its okay for me but please think before you act....

That is only HOUSE committee
GCdedo it seems like that list is ONLY house members
I think Senate members will be listed at
http://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/committees/d_three_sections_with_teasers/committees_home.htm
and
http://budget.senate.gov/
It is empty right now. We need to focuss MORE on senators as they are more aware of the S1932 section 8001

what do you think,,it will pass!or not
http://thomas.loc.gov/home/lawsmade...on.html#request
first read the link completely.
I chosed this part from that:
The House conferees are strictly limited in their consideration to matters in disagreement between the two Houses. Consequently, they may not strike out or amend any portion of the bill that was not amended by the other House. Furthermore, they may not insert new matter that is not germane to or that is beyond the scope of the differences between the two Houses.
do you remember we were very sad about Senator Byrd amendment?
it failed....
he wanted to delete immigration reforms
result:
as senate was against deleting immigration issue by a very good vote,,
the conference can,t delete 8001 and 8002

At the risk of being beaten up, I am going to repeat this. Whoever can spare the time, please make FONE calls to the committee members. That's by far the BEST way to make them aware of our issues, and number of people affected.
One more thing to note: it is untrue that we need to call ONLY senators since S.1932 had the immig sections. The congressmen need to be educated about the issue as well. Keep calling/faxing, THEY WILL CONSIDER IT.
And for some of the pessimism seeping in from some posts, get over it. We have no choice but to be positive and fight for our cause.
Trust me, all those who made fone calls and sent faxes, IT HAS WORKED!!!!!!
You guys have been nothing short of BRILLIANT.
Please don't slack off during almost the end of the battle. We still need positive energy and enthusiasm.
okay, since no one volunteered, I will myself send cookies to everyone if we win the whole thing
