Folks, it is time to focus energy and call Senators
WHO OPPOSE our Employment Base immigration cause. I am
calling the Senator Byrd and Tancredo offices now. I
will politely try to persuade them or their staff
about our cause. Them I will proceed and call all
other senators I can. My intention is to explain the
"half-lives" we have been exposed to, our plight and
reasonable request to relief this severe cut-off dates
from our lives.
Read the below and I hope that motivates you to do the
same and contact Senator Byrd, Tancredo and others who
oppose this bill. Explain the Employment Base
greencard part. We are not interested in generating in
debating the highly controversial H1B increase,
especially after a study that shows that 70,000
qualified American blacks could take IT jobs that H1B
folks are reportedly doing.

no chance at all!)

ASK YOUR TWO SENATORS TO VOTE FOR THE BYRD AMENDMENT
ON IMMIGRATION REVENUE
When you call the offices of your state's two
Senators, tell them that you urge the Senators to vote
FOR Sen. Byrd's amendment concerning immigration
revenue.
Tell them this amendment is to S. 1932 (the Deficit
Reduction Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 2005).
Tell them that Sen. Byrd's amendment would strip out
provisions that inadvertently were going to add
350,000 permanent foreign workers and family to the
U.S. workforce EVERY YEAR.
Then make your points about how we don't need massive
new flows of foreign workers (see arguments below).

WHAT'S HAPPENING IN SENATE THAT GIVES US SOME HOPE
Yesterday, there appeared no interest anywhere in the
Senate to try to amend the Budget Reconciliation bill
by stripping the provision that would add up to
350,000 extra permanent green cards a year. Our best
friends in the Senate said they didn't want to
challenge the provision because they knew they would
lose overwhelmingly.
But constituent pressure has been immense against this
massive increase in immigration.
As in so many times in the past, our saving angel
appears to be Sen. Byrd (D-WV) who at the moment has
decided to offer an amendment on the Senate floor
(probably on Wednesday) to strip all provisions from
the Reconciliation bill that would increase temporary
H-1B work visas and permanent immigration green cards.
It appears that Sen. Sessions (R-AL) will lead the
Republican support for this bill.
Sen. Byrd's amendment apparently would raise the
Judiciary Committee's revenue goal by raising fees on
existing work visas and greencards instead of by
selling more visas and greencards.
One of the great things about this effort is that it
appears that Sen. Byrd is actually getting several
Democratic Senators to work closely with him on
killing the outlandish provision of selling skilled
American jobs in order to raise extra revenue to
decrease the federal deficit. The American worker
rarely has gotten help against immigration competition
from Democratic Senators (other than Byrd and
Feinstein of California) in recent years. But this
provision cooked up by Microsoft lobbyists and forced
into the budget bill by Sen. Kennedy (D-MA) and Sen.
Specter (R-PA) may have finally gone so overboard to
get more Democrats standing up for working Americans
again.
At a time when most of the nation is up in arms
because overall immigration is far too high, Sen. Byrd
-- by bringing this measure out in the open for debate
-- may be able to show his colleagues how shameful it
would be for the Senate to increase the importation of
foreign workers and their families by another 350,000
a year.
Those are all jobs that would be removed permanently
from the American people because these foreign workers
are given permanent residency in the U.S.
