大家知道這項法案對我們多重要嗎?
根據我的記憶, 如果法案通過, 我們至少有以下好處:
1. 每年增加三萬H1名額;
2. 配偶和小孩不占綠卡名額, 意味著綠卡名額增加2.5倍;
3. 馬上可以遞交485(即使仍在排期中), 申請回美證(AP)和工卡(EAD); 485遞交180天後可以換工作.
請大家修正補充.

"I am a concerned constituent calling to urge Senator ( name )
to vote against an amendment expected to be offered today to
the Deficit Reduction Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 2005 by Senator
Robert Byrd (D-WV). This amendment reverses action taken by the
Senate Judiciary Committee to increase revenue by recapturing
authorized, but never used, visa numbers for foreign workers with key
skills in jobs for which U.S. workers are not available. "I am a
concerned constituent calling to urge Senator () to vote an amendment
expected to be offered to the Deficit Reduction Omnibus Reconciliation
Act of 2005 by Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV). This amendment reverses
action taken by the Senate Judiciary Committee to increase revenue
by Sen. Byrd's amendment raises the revenue that would be lost by
adopting the ill-advised House Judiciary Committee proposal to
raise the fees on L-1 intra-company transferees to $1,500 per visa,
which would discourage overseas companies from opening plants in the
U.S. and would encourage countries to retaliate against U.S. companies
seeking to transfer U.S. managers to oversee their international
operations.Please vote no when this amendment comes up for
consideration. If not, the Senate will lose the opportunity to
raise revenue by allowing the use of visas that were authorized by
Congress, but never used due to administrative delays."
