Ask your local Congressperson to support Congresswomen Anna Eshoo and Zoe Lofgren

(originally posted at VSC forum)

I have an important request about our petition to Congressional members.

I live in California 14th District, and for a couple of months, I have been working with my representative Anna Eshoo for our petition, especially for sixth request of our petition to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) for Naturalization requirements.
But, one of our hardship is:
major part of Republican don't support it.
As you know, in California, both of Senators are Democratic, and most of Congresspersons in San Francisco Bay Area are also Democratic.
I think Republican is stronger in the area covered by the VSC forum.

I'd like you to contact you local Congressperson to ask to support amendment of INA that Congresswoman Anna Eshoo is trying to introduce.

Could you please send our petition and your cover letter with your signature and residential address to your local Congressional office ?
A sample is following.

The lastest status at the CSC forum is here.
Best regards,

Hi, cinta,
I'm working mainly with a staff at Anna Eshoo's Washington DC office for Naturalization requirements.
It's definitely required to introduce a bill to amend the INA.
As Anna doesn't belong to Subcommittee on Immigration, we are contacting Zoe Lofgren, too.
She is a Member of the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Immigration, and a representative of CA 16th District, next to my district.

Currently, Anna's office is negotiating with several Congressional offfices in Washington DC, but she seems to have not got enough supports from Republican that seems not to want to change the INA.

kashmir,
I have a new strategy to gather Republican's support for this. I'll discuss the same this evening.
 
Check this out.. FYI.. Very Important

The newly appointed Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services ombudsman -- a watchdog who hopes to turn around poor customer service and slow visa processing within the nation's largest federal bureaucracy -- will visit Chicago this weekend to hear immigrants' complaints and visit the district offices of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

"One of my key goals is to ensure we do provide for the consumer a First World service in a First World country," said Prakash I. Khatri, appointed ombudsman in July by Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge.

Khatri will report to Homeland Security Acting Deputy Secretary James Loy and said he is confident that his position "will allow for substantial long-term influence in terms of policy."

Khatri, 41, is an immigration attorney from Florida who recently worked as manager of immigration and visa processing for Walt Disney World, where he developed a highly regarded, automated, high-volume visa processing system. He has represented clients from 100 countries and provided visa processing consulting services to corporate clients.

As ombudsman, Khatri will assist immigrants and employers in resolving problems with the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, identify problem areas and propose needed changes in BCIS policy and procedure. He will also make annual recommendations to Congress.

One of Khatri's priorities will be reducing the backlog of pending cases, which grew by 34 percent between June 2002 and June 2003.

"The first and foremost priority is to provide better service. With [a] dramatic reduction, a very large number of complaints would no longer be coming in,'' he said.

Khatri wants to eliminate excessive regulations and speed up the processing of permanent residents' visa card replacements, as well as family-based and employment-based visa petitions.

"Many years of very detailed, self-imposed procedures and regulations have created an overabundance of requirements which have nothing to do with security,'' Khatri said. "Some regulations need to be revisited and changed so we can move forward."

Khatri will meet with resident immigrants in a public session at 9 a.m. Saturday at the Erie Neighborhood House, 1347 W. Erie.



We should encourange people living in and around Chicago should go and meet Prakash Khatri this weekend and ask him about our Petition.
 
But beware it is much easier to just do the talking. A little pressure from us/congress/whatever goverment organ will always help...

To influence Republican and Democrat House of Representatives, we all should FAX our petition to House Policy Committee and House Immigration Sub-committee. Last few months we were contacting local Congressional offices. So now let us all focus on Congressional leadership offices.If they see lot of petitions regarding the same issue then there is fair enough chance that our petition will be considered and they might act immediately to reduce immigration benefits backlog and to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) for Naturalization requirements. So, Please FAX the petition immediately.
