Bentlebee and Jayo2k-- the two cases below are your simple answer.
Paunescu v. I.N.S., 76 F. Supp. 2d 896 (1999)
Nyaga v. Ashcroft, 323 F.3d 906 (2003)
Congress will not cancel Diversity Visa Program even if they wont be this year, not next year and certainly not the next three years. Why? LAWS are passed in the U.S by Bicameralism and presentment. With both houses sharply divided on the issue of immigration it will be very hard to satisfy the "bicameralsim" and even if the bill is able to pass at congress with the President in support of immigration, he can use his VETO POWERS. In class action law suit you dont need all the members. Even one member is okay to suit for a class action. The person just have to show that he can represent the passive class members interest and there is a common question of law and facts.
Frankly, we will all lose if an injunction is placed on the Dv which is most likely to be. Bceause then, we spend another months waiting in anxiety to find out if we were selected or not. What all those who were not selected going to lose if the 22K winners are reinstated--NOTHING. They may say it was not fair to them but really thats why the Dos is still redrawing to satisfy those who did not win.
I will admonish all of us, instead of wishing the downfall of the 22k winners, we should rather wish that everyone's interest is protected. My family did not win so I am hoping a new draw will be done in July. Thats why I want Dos and the 22k winners to settle this case quickly for all of us to move from this problem.
