Today our volunteers met with .@doug_rand, Senior advisor to .@USCISDirector to discuss about #H4EADdelays & #GCwastage
We are grateful for the positive discussions on these critical issues impacting high skilled immigrants in decades long #GCbacklog
Unless Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) or the other Latino senators take a hard line on immigration reform, a legalization bill is unlikely to be enacted during the current Congress. (Analysis by @PabloReports, Washington correspondent)

#ImmigrationReform
The current estimated waiting time for Indian nationals entering the green card backlog is 195 years to get permanent residency in the US. Indian-American doctors argue why that's unfair and what the #Biden Administration could have done.

Immigrants have made COVID-19 recovery possible—they care for patients, educate our children, and put food on our tables. I’m committed to working toward secure a pathway to citizenship and fair wages for immigrant essential workers. #ImmigrantsAreEssential
Indians waiting for green cards hoped that a decades-long backlog might end this year. Instead, thousands of slots may disappear via @TalKopan. I'm glad this issue is receiving the attention it deserves. 3 more days for the admin to save these slots

NEWS: "That was always Plan B,” @RepJimmyGomez told me when asked if 2nd legalization pitch to parliamentarian includes moving the immigration registry date up from 1972.
245i is a section of the Immigration and Nationality Act that allows someone to pay a fine and get around status violations and apply to adjust status to permanent residency. It does not get one around green card caps. But the other House provisions do.
I've learned that the language that will be presented in "Plan B" to the Parliamentarian is being finalized today & will be presented tomorrow. It looks like 245i may be in the proposal & not just the registry update. PLUS, all the backlog reduction provisions in the House bill.
@PunchbowlNews@SenAlexPadilla What’s the point of this post when u r not gonna ask questions that were posted here? Tons of ppl asked about Employment based GC backlog due to discriminatory country caps n 60002-4 clauses that solves this n raises 15 Billion dollars. U chose to ignore that question! NOT FAIR!

While we rally behind inclusion of 60002-4 in Senate recon bill, we continue to highlight impact of national origin discrimination on Indian immigrants.
We met .@RepJahanaHayes staff to discuss #H4EADdelays & requested her leadership for CT delegation cosponsorship of #HR3648

I am deeply disappointed in the Parliamentarian’s decision tonight, but the fight for immigration reform will continue. Senate Democrats have prepared an alternative proposal for the Parliamentarian’s consideration in the coming days.

Currently unemployed due to H4EAD BACKLOG. I am a healthcare worker, fully vaccinated. I would love to get back to work in the middle of a pandemic and serve AMERICAN people but only if @USCIS can help me do that. Please fasten the process. #H4EADdelays#H4EAD

@SimonTomasSays@SenatorDurbin Don't be surprised if Durbin keeps mum on the Senate text at least until Tuesday when they're back on Capitol Hill for a cloture vote at 11:30am. I'll be there looking to ask Durbin about the Senate text - specifically, the visa backlog, incl high-skilled & spouses. Sound good?
