Who Sizzles and Who Fizzles (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/14/AR2007031402298_2.html)
The nonpartisan Congress.org (http://www.congress.org/congressorg/power_rankings/index.tt) released rankings of the most powerful legislators in Congress this week, and just as interesting as the newly empowered were those hovering at the bottom of the list. Predictably, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid topped the list, and the list quickly moved to committee chairmen with muscle.
The rankings took into account the legislators' ability to get things done by the traditional paths of leadership positions and committee assignments but left room for the "sizzle" factor -- reserved for those who "exert or possess power that can't be measured by these standard measures." Specifically mentioned in this category were three presidential candidates, Sens. John McCain (18th), Hillary Clinton (12th) and Barack Obama (27th).
Sen. Elizabeth Dole, sadly, was not given points for sizzle -- or much else, for that matter. She ranked as the 95th most powerful senator. Yes, that is out of 100. Vying for the bottom rung was also Sen. George Voinovich, who despite serving since 1998 ranked 90th. And as if he hasn't already had a bad year (or two), Rep. William Jefferson came in dead last in the House, awarded negative "fizzle" points due to scandal. Being accused of stashing a $90,000 bribe in his freezer was bound to affect something, since it tipped neither his reelection campaign nor his ability to get a committee assignment.

Wondering what the impact will be for 140 processing with the revised bulletin. Mine EB-2 has been pending in TSC for the last 5 months. It's my understanding we cannot use the AC-21 provisions like switching jobs without approved 140.
If 140 processing goes up to a year that would be really bad for new applicants. Atleast they should resume Premium processing. Any thoughts?

Can one obtain a photo ID on a visitor visa? This way the visitor need not go everywhere with his / her passport. Please advise.
If you can manage to get the points required to get a State Photo ID then you can get it. It will be valid for the period of the visitor visa.

Sorry bro/sis.
Center for Immigration studies is a partisan organization with the ultimate goal of reducing immigration to this country. They spin each and every analysis to the conclusion that current immigration levels are bad for US economy. They are not our friends.

Hi,
Recently we moved. So I did not apply the AP renewal(a two month window) till we move. But now my wife has extreme family accident/emergency in India. So we applied for AP online and went to Chicago field office (we went there because kid also need INDIA VISA STAMP) and to Milwaukee office with letter from document. They said that they would not approve. So I have sent the support document s for I-131 to the Texas Service center in overnight courier service today. I have H1 valid till may 2010. What are my options?
Does her travelling on H1 with AP pending will cause problems to I-485?
Thanks for your help

Sure. Just showing evidence that you have filed your I-140 is sufficient to file for 485.

Dr. Mirza Tihir is a true angel to the refugees he serves in his town of Syracuse, New York. And he certainly can relate to their story as he too is a refugee. Dr. Tihic lost more than 60 relatives to the "ethnic cleansing" in Serbia in the 1990s including his grandfather. He is now program manager of entreprenuerial practice at the Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University. His job now involves creating programs focused on helping refugees get the skills they need to find jobs and succeed in their new country. Recently, he joined with friends to start...

Hi Gurus,
I wanted to know if I can work for H-1B with my current company which holds my H-1B and work outside with another company on EAD. Is there a chance that I may loose my H-1B status if I work with EAD.
Please let me know,
Thanks,

When respected, albeit left-leaning, members of the punditocracy, like Chris Matthews and Maureen Dowd, begin to make hard right turns, it's time to pay close attention. Yesterday, in reaction to the Christmas Day suicide bomb attempt on Northwest Flight 253 as it approached Detroit, Matthews, the host of MSNBC's Hardball, came closer than ever before to embracing what sounded like race- and faith-based profiling of air travelers and the willing surrender of large chunks of our civil rights if those measures would make us safer. Today, Dowd, a New York Times Op-Ed columnist, likened President Obama to Spock (not Benjamin,...

Hi,
Got an RFE for my wife to complete the required vaccinations. She did not take 2 required vaccinations when we filed I-485 as we were expecting a baby. USCIS along with the RFE sent the original I-693 form that had been submitted and asked us to present this form to the same surgeon to complete the medical.
Question:
At this point, I believe that USCIS does not have the medical record (I-693) as they returned it to us. Will the surgeon have to give a new I-693 consolidating the new 2 tests + the tests taken earlier? This case we will send a new I-693 comprising of all tests taken to date.
OR
Specify only the 2 tests that are done now and we send to USCIS the returned OLD copy + new COPY with the 2 tests?
Thanks,
AjaySri

hi there,
i'm planning to bring my in-laws to USA and they have their visitor visa appointment next week. everything is set but i'm a littled worried about demonstrating financial stability to sponsor them.
i have paystubs & employment letter but the bank letter doesn't look so good. i live on check-to-check and my current balance is around 3K. you think i should take chance and go for the interview and hope VO doesn't ask for bank letter or doesn't mind the balance?
please help. any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Hi, this might not be the right forum for my question but at least I am hoping that I can either can an answer or steered to the correct direction. So I quit my job in the US about a month ago because I was immigrating to another country. My job was located in Arizona and I immigrated to Israel. My company knew this was the reason I was quitting. So I am wondering if I should have received a severance package or unemployment benefits because of the reason of immigrating to another country.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I spend 30mintes reading the Title V-Immigration benefit to get sense of this new immigration law.
I do not see a country cap (10%) anywhere in this bill?
Sorry for my ignorance, if I missed this paragraph.
