There are two advocacy events being organized in Washington DC to address decades of greencard backlog for skilled immigrants. One by Immigration Voice (Feb 4, 5 and 6)and the other by SIIA (Feb 8). Hundreds of meetings with lawmakers have been arranged and training will be provided on how to engage in these meetings. Please make use of this one of a kind opportunity to directly meet lawmakers in Washington DC, explain your greencard backlog situation how it impacts your family and push for HR 392 bill to be included in the crucial DACA bill that is in the works for March 2018. HR392 has more than 300 cosponsors already and if passed will drastically reduce the greencard backlog. It needs a massive push to be included, now is the perfect time https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/392/cosponsors Register for the advocacy event and make sure you bring your spouse and kids to the event.

I still don't understand why HR392 is being pushed vs a merit based immigration.
Because mathematically it has better chance of passing. Already has more than 300 cosponsors and bipartisan. It’s not easy to pass a bill, requires a lot of work behind the scenes. Merit based should eventually come but it will go through ton of roadblocks, not in near future. HR 392 is the best bet available right now and DACA bill is the immediate vehicle available now
300 means nothing in Senate and for president to sign. RAISE is the best bet
I don't really like the increasing of family immigration due to HR392 and immigration voice are a bunch of immigrant baiting liars so, I'll pass on this.
Merit based immigration is the best way to solve this problem and I'm not settling for anything less.
At least you would have tried. By no action how is the situation going to change? Merit based crap will take years. This has a chance now.
Merit is the way to go.
HR392 and merit based system is apples and oranges. Merit based system is to prevent Visa abuse. HR392 is for fixing a different (HUGE) problem currently caused by the broken immigrationsystem. This will also, in future help someone coming into USA through merit based visa smoothly transition into permanent residency. Without HR392, merit based system will still end up causing backlogs in the system. Countries like China and India do not have a dearth for people with merit.
Immigration Voice is again at it exploring your emotions and making money,very novel business
I'm an immigrant and I support Mr. Trump 100%.
Are you Indian?
fuck hr 392 and fuck you for not even including the summary, this bill simply focuses on removing the per country cap, no caps = indian sweat shops continuing fucking the system and making backlog forever for everyone, not just indians, great solution! nope, I don’t agree everyone should suffer for your asshole sweatshops, well I don’t think indians should either but that does not mean make all people take the hit
The fact most don't realize is even with hr392 , deserving candidates from good companies won't benefit coz all the body shop companies will flood with even more eb1c gc - clogging the system for ever. Even today if eb1c fraud was fixed coupled with stringent h1b, GC queue would move much faster
@nand - HR392 and Merit Based will both need to be passed.

This is great actually. First time ever some elected representative actually calling out problems of Indians
Yes, that is correct. Acknowledging there is a problem is the first step
In other words a protest of frustrated Indians.
Better than indentured servants who are highly educated, well paid, pay taxes, no crime.
No. You are not welcomed. Educated immigrants paying taxes will not depend on welfare. How can Democrats enslave such immigrants generation after generation? Certain religion from Mideast and West Africa reproducing 6-15 new Democrats votes per couple are much more productive.
