    As far as IV core/leadership is concerned, IV has standard "Talking Points" which were given to volunteers for "Meet the law-makers" event during DC Rally. Also there is a decent FAQ and guide on Lawmaker meetings. You can try to arrange a weekend conference call with IV core ( paskal or pappu) too. Chintu25 (sam) has experience in this matter (he setup the last call)

    Here's something from my end, to get the discussion started so that we have some concrete agenda for 10/20. It would also help participants to come ready with their ideas. It's also something we can do from our end, instead of waiting for leadership to come to our rescue!

    1) Introductions - each member introduces himself/herself briefly, describes his/her GC journey, his/her concerns, expectations from IV and what could make them active participants in the grassroots movements, how can they contribute to IV in membership drive, meet the press, meet the lawmakers, funding etc.

    Idea is to comeup with a SWAT anaylis. Identify our collective strengths, challenges and areas for improvement.

    Here are somethings that can be planned

    a) If someone has good media contacts, he/she can setup meetings with news reporter, others with compelling stories like 6-7 years wait after applying GC, children aging out etc. can volunteer to talk on behalf of IV.

    b) If someone has contact with Senators, Congressmen etc. they can be pivotal in setting up meetings. A person with strong communication skills and marketing skills can volunteer to present the facts and sell our case in the meetings. It's very important that whoever presents our case does it effectively as our case needs a hardsell

    c) Guys who volunteer/have contacts at temples, mosques, churches, gurudwaras, schools, colleges, libraries etc. can pull strings to get us space in the announcement boards. Others can print out the material and actually go and post those flyers at the designated places.

    .... and so on. By sharing work we can share the burden and achieve more than what's possible acting individually. It's important that we know each other to comeup with such ideas for collaboration

    2) Publicity Campaign/Membership Drive - I need not stress the importance of these. Here's something we need to do at the meetings

    a) Divide the areas between members. This will avoid duplication, redundancy [ two members posting at the same grocery store etc.].

    Somebody please get a MI map! We will mark area for each member to cover. We will know which areas are well-served and under-served. Volunteers from Well-served areas can adopt some of the nearby under-served areas. Or we call give a holler here say - " we need someone from Armada"

    b) Set concrete weekly/monthly targets for each member like I will do 5 groceries which are ABC,XYZ, ... next weekend. As each volunteer meets the target, he/she reports to the publicity campaign co-ordinator (yes, we need a co-ordinator too!). Data is compiled and presented month-end ( yahoo groups, teleconferencing) so we know if we met our self-targets - how much's done, how much remains to be done, why some targets were missed, lessons learnt, how to avoid next time etc.

    3) Real Grassroots campaign - Lawmaker meetings need not only target Congressmen/women. Remember, the letter Gov. Schwarnegger and 13 others wrote to US Congress? Governors and local politicians can influence too.

    We can target local politicians - state senators, Governor etc. We can try to persuade them to write letters to Congressmen/women supporting our cause. Congressmen/women do depend on these local politicians to win the elections. If they write letters it will carry more wait than our letters, they also may be easier to persuade with our contacts than top-tier politicians like Senators. Instead of concentrating at the top, we can try the 'bottom up' approach in-addition to 'Meet Congressmen' campaigns.

    Some plans can be drawnup during the meeting. Again we need to set targets, monitor and analyze progress, come up with corrective action etc.


    4) Funding Drive - Show me the money :)

    We'll need to come out with a Contribution/Financial plan.

    a) How each one of us contributing/plans to contribute to IV annually? We need to tally the figures to come up with State-level contributions which should be communicated with the IV core.

    b) Financial targets/commitments need to be setup at IV national and state chaper levels. We cannot totally depend on IV core to run ads in local papers for e.g. If it takes $1000 for e.g. it may not be possible for one or two persons (the so-called leaders) to bear the whole burden, however if we can share it like $100 x 10 or $50 x 20 it help further our cause. TRANSPARENCY at local-level is a must to gain members confidence. So we need to budget, execute, spend and report the spending ( amongst contributors only, others please excuse)

    c) It will also help setup the level-of-support that the State chapter, IV core can provide to members. In case help at USCIS HQ level, Ombudsman-level etc. are needed in his/her case a non-contributing member cannot expect the same service as a member contributing his/her mite to the campaigns.

    The contributions need not only be financial. If someone's unable to contribute significantly financially, they should make it up by volunteering for other activity.

    5) Identify the local Leadership Team - Since we are all volunteers here with full-time jobs, it's impossible for one person to handle the co-ordination, monitoring, reporting (to members and core) activities. A leadership team needs to be identified to share the burden.

    Leaders need to understand that they are the public face of IV in Michigan. It's expected they take a lead in all local activities, and will be speaking to media, co-ordinating between IV core and chapter members. They need to be open to phone calls, and in a position to answer member queries on a timely fashion (otherwise members will lose faith in the local chapter and the movement will die)

    Leadership team will publish a monthly action plan, targets, results of last month etc. complementing with IV national-level action items and plans.

    6) Localized talking points to Senators - Since our Democratic Senators keep countering our cause with issues such as Workers (read American Workers protection) and Amnesty, we need to come up with solutions based on previous experience.

    In addition to IV talking points, we can also talk about -

    1) Protecting Workers by removing job-restrictions on Employer, Job-level, salary-level etc. to GC applicants. How this will help American workers too.

    2) Impact of GC applicants immigrating to Windsor (Canada) on Michigan economy. Loss of state taxes, losses to grocery stores, electronic stores causing loss of jobs etc.

    3) Michigan is facing a labor-crisis as most young people in MI are moving to greener pastures in search of better opportunities. This has resulted in jobs moving out of Michigan, reluctance of new businesses to enter MI etc. due to non-availabilty of local resources ( We can show some press reports to prove our point)

    Only way to counter labor-attrition is to attract and retain Immigrant workers. Immigrant workers will only relocate and work in MI, if MI is perceived as an Immigrant-friendly state. Senators office can take the lead in positioning MI as an attractive destination for Immigrant labor. If successful this campaign can reverse job loss and reinvigorate Michigan economy.
    I've posted my ideas to get the discussion started. Others, please share your ideas too.


    ....

    Now lets start on the game plan.

    We would need some help from our leaders here..... what are the crucial topics that shall be discussed, and who are the people in state that we should target?

    I think, calling our senetors and possibly arranging a meeting with them would be on our top of the list. But lets meet and discuss first to decide what points shall be covered, and what shall be avoided....etc...

    Thanks admin, and link provided by Eb3_frustrated works. Is TITLE IV--BACKLOG REDUCTION AND VISAS FOR STUDENTS, MEDICAL PROVIDERS, AND ALIENS WITH ADVANCED DEGREES, the only one which applies to us? The reason I ask is, I was going through this section and could not find where it says, spouses and children of primary applicant are excluded from cap count. Am i missing something or it has been removed?

    The answer is we all will have to bell the cat...and it will take more than a few attempts to do that.

    IMHO, we should focus on what we can do rather than focusing on what some people could have done or what some one did to dampen the last attempt.

    People will always find time for what is important to them; all we can do is try to make it more convenient and keep giving then enough opportunities.

    We should have some sales/marketing people on this forum; they could have told us about how long it takes to convert a prospect to a customer.

    Have faith my friend...

    How about taking this to the next step and hire paid fulltime staff who can
    1) call people and request donations
    2) organize meetings
    3) stimulate the local chapters
    4) promote IV
    ..... and the list can go on.....and do all the things necessary to convert all propects to customers.

    How about having full time offices in DC? This office will run on donations.

    Finally, how about instead of anonymous members make this a place where everyone has to provide their personal details etc.

    Anyways, I am just ranting.

    I am wondering your logic for using "desi lawyers". They graduated through the same system as any other "book smart" attorney in the "smart" fragomen system. I think it is always a negative to go through a large law firm. An association with a large firm must not be confused with efficiency. Who knows...might be freebies which they provide to HR grp of the large firms keeps them in the picture.......................

    I agree with you. Even we have Fragomen attorneys and I did not find them any great. So far I have not had any bad experience with them but they screwed up one of my friends GC and now that person has to leave US.

    First of all - THANK YOU. It's because of IV I am happy today with EAD cards on hand. I will never forget what IV did for me and thousands of GC applications in July. I can't forget the despair and the smiles IV brought back to our lives.

    Probable reason - less motivated for couple of reasons which are already spelled out on this forum by others.

    However I hoped to be part of rally towards the end. But couldn't. My parents came to USA last Friday. I did plan to combine my parents D.C tour with IV rally. But as such we happened to drop-in to D.C, unexpectedly, from Baltimore on Sunday itself. And on Tuesday 9/18 - all important day, we were busy packing to other attractions....

    To Franklin -

    Rally agenda - from the start, the D.C rally has not seemed need-based rally. San Jose rally and flower campaign were need-based. They were needed because USCIS ditched all July hopefuls. We were aghast and speech-less. So there was that burning-sensation in our tummies that took us to streets and greet the USCIS chief with bloody flowers!!

    D.C rally has been strategic one. Somewhere in the beginning of the game, we pushed wrong buttons in marketing/selling the strategy or signing up people for the D.C rally. I remember very very few messages on the rally forums and tons and 100s of messages on "July 2" forum.

    All senior fellows and the 1000+ members who made it to rally - have you surprised why there is NO 5000 - 10000 attendance.

    Some more pointers to my thoughts -

    > I can't associate all IV handles with real people easily.
    > I don't know who is what (like in organizations we have people associated with certain responsibilities).
    > Has anyone ever asked whether we should mention our association with IV in 485 application? And the repercussions?

    yes it was very encouraging to see all the confirmed and some more showed up...
    We could clearly see that all the members were upbeat and ready to go...
    WD, many thanks for the information and material you prepared for the meeting. You are clearly our technical and knowledge source leader....

    We will continue with the game plan... as you noted down step by step.
    Our first goal now is to have a phone meeting with leaders where we can gather up some training material, and discussion points.
    We also need some information on how to approach the senators locally, and set up meetings... what should be brought up in the meeting and what should be avoided... etc...

    I appreciate all those who came, and also those who wanted to come but couldnt due to some legit reasons....
    Our first meeting was a huge step. Others need to see this, and start participating in the local drive.... we dont need your money here, you can continue contributing to IV .... we just need your time and help so we can do this together..... we can defeat this monster together....

    Rise Michigan.... rise now.... we do this now.... or never..... for the sake of your family, friends, fellow countrymen, and all those who are affected due to these unfair backlogs....

    I think we can wait till Aug 15th for I-140 receipt and if we don't get that (:( :mad: :confused: ) then we can file I-485 with the mailroom instructions from the FAQ (:) :) )

    but its better to wait till Aug 12 not more than that.....

    I've been reading some great human interest stories in various threads here on ImmigrationVoice.org. I know that there was some interest earlier in creating short videos on people who've been waiting forever for their green cards. Why not channelize this into a single place where we can gather these stories in a more compelling format?

    Here's an idea that I've been toying with for sometime. If we can take all these stories from all over the country and instead of using words to describe them, use small videos (60 - 90s) or a narrated slideshow to tell these stories and have them available via a single website. We would use YouTube to actually hold the video. We could have it sliced by region/state/city. We could have a running counter to show the average number of years people registered on the site have been wating for their green card. That could be a great place to refer to the media to portray that there are some really great people out there with a compelling reason to live in this country but the green card process is a big stumbling block.

    The most important part is that the stories need to be positive, not sob stories. They should bristle with energy, to convey to the people and media at large that by wasting the energy of all these people in green card process, the US is essentially not able to channelize this for more productive use. If people are interested then please email me at vikas.chowdhry@gmail.com and if there is sufficient positive response then I can get the ball rolling.

    ....

    BharatPremi has brought up a good point. There needs to be some corrective action that needs to be undertaken here.
    At lease some of those that are absent from the meeting are not cowards as the core-team implies. We all know that.

    State level members can judge the organization better than core-team that receives a "feedback" from state level leadership.
    I have reservations about the style of texas leadership myself.

    If we are open, let us discuss it at state level.

    ( Volunteership and leadership are not always the same )

    I agree with Bharat Premi...
    Even according to my lawyer there are not much cases in 2004 /2005 EB3 I...
    Guess many have chosen EB2 as they were eligible by that time .I dont understand why EB3 I is being projected so negatively.

    Many have already transferred EB3 to EB2.

    2001/2002 may be there are still duplicate open applications which USCIS have to sort out .

    Lets hope for the best...But seeing Bharat Premi responses...builds hope.

    Thanks

    My pledge,

    As soon as $10k is reached, I will contribute, $50.

    When $13k is reached, I will contribute another $50.

    And when $20k is reached, I will contribute another $50.

    This, of course, is in addition to the recurring contributions that I already make.

    Everyone, please take initiative in this effort.

    We spend thousands of dollars and years waiting for our green cards, why is it so hard to realize that this is only to help ourselves?.

    These contributions are more or at least as important as our car payments, mortgage, or educational loans. This effort will only ensure (by giving us our well deserved GCs) that we can stay here on a permanent basis and not have to be sent back home (or is it really home?, for so many of us who have spent close to a decade or longer, here) at the slightest disturbance in the economy.

    I hope you will make the right decision.

    Thanks and regards,

    Oh, and can someone please PM me when these targets are reached (just in case I forget to check this thread) so I can make the pledge I promised to make.
