Indians Rally in USA, on Pending Green Cards - "Break the Backlog Series"

Many Indian professionals held rallies over the US throughout the weekend in Arkansas, Kentucky, and Oregon, in order to end the lengthy and enormous green card backlog by urging the legislators to support the removal of random choice per-country limit regulations.

The present immigration system enforces a 7% per-country reservation on the allocation of green cards or permanent lawful residency and the most affected individuals are Indian-Americans, who are highly skilled and came to the US on H-1B work visas.Consequently, the present waiting period for Indian skilled immigrants for a green card can be as lengthy as 70 years.

A recently formed organization by Indian-Americans for this intention,Seattle-based GCReforms, says that nearly 300,000 high-skilled immigrants are impacted who have made significant contributions to the US economy, and the american public, lawmakers are joining the chorus ( 'Break the Backlog Series' ) asking for reform, to address the discriminatory green card backlogs impacting employment-based green card applicants from India.

More than 300 people assembled to show the support for this campaign held on March 17 at Capital building in Frankfort, Kentucky by GCReforms. In the upcoming weeks, GCreforms look forward to raising awareness in some of the other states and has been gradually getting the support from politicians, business leaders, and the American public.

This is the most significant issue for the Indian diaspora in the US, as it affects several physicians, engineers, teachers, nurses and medical professionals.
