IV Reception

The Immigration Voice reception was held in the Rayburn House office building on Monday evening.










The reception was attended by the following lawmakers:
  • Congressman Allen Boyd
  • Congressman Joe Wilson
  • Congressman Keith Ellison
It was also attended by the following prominent immigration lawyers:
  • Sheela Murthy
  • Zhang Associates
  • Greg Siskind

The presence of these lawmakers and lawyers proved that IV has ably represented the interestes of the community of legal, skilled immigrants in the US. The US lawmakers made brief speeches at the reception and supported the goals of IV.
Kudos to Immigration Voice and all the volunteers and members who have kept the faith with IV.

All work and no fun?
If you thought that the lobby day was all work and no fun - you couldn't have been farther away from the truth. All the success of the day finally helped logiclife (our official drill sergeant) to loosen up a little. Rumor has it that he even smiled a little bit and that he did not ban any member all day long.
Anil, an active volunteer and a Chicagoean brought some of the windy city spirit (not spirits!) to the staid DC.
To cut a long story short, people enjoyed the evening, relieved their stress and got ready for another big day.
Stay tuned to IV forums and this blog for updates all day long tomorrow.
