Poll: Immigration Reform Receives Wide Support The latest New York Times/CBS News poll conducted from May 18 to 23 found broad support among Americans for the new immigration bill, no matter what their political party alliance is. Would you favor or oppose a guest worker program? How should priority be given when admitting immigrants? Should illegal immigrants get a renewable visa if they pay a fine, have a clean record and pass a background check? What should happen to illegal immigrants who have been in the U.S. for at least two years? Data Source: Julian Preston and Marjorie Connelly, “Immigration Bill Provisions Gain Wide Support in Poll.” New York Times 25 May 2007. 26 May 2007 Note: In the past several years, the immigration reform has been a hot legislative issue. Now, it comes to a critical crossroad. Many aliens in the U.S. have been adversely affected by the visa bulletin retrogression, H-1B cap crisis, and other immigration legal problems. Although politicians are debating on all of these immigration issues in Congress, significant progress cannot be achieved without involvement from the numerous immigrants in the U.S., including many of our readers. So, we encourage you let your voice heard by the legislators by contacting Congressman. We have established an online system to help you contact Congress.

The full implementation of the new immigration law needs at least one year, as border security must be enforced at first. There is still uncertainty about the passage and implementation of the new immigration bill. So, we suggest you submit your immigration petition now by whatever venue available to you at the current situation. The earlier, the better, that’s the thumb up rule in immigration applications.
