is that why congress tried to pass this last week? House Judiciary Com. to Vote Today on Foreign-Worker Bills Updated Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 10:00 AM Public Notice for Markup Given in Dead of Night Yesterday The House Judiciary Committee will take up two foreign-worker bills today: H.R. 5882, which would add an additional 550,000 permanent green cards; and H.R. 5924, which would add 20,000 additional foreign nurses per year for three years (plus their families). Please contact your U.S. Representative through the Capitol Switchboard (202-224-3121) and ask him/her to do everything possible to stop the passage of these bills. The Committee waited until late last night to give notice for the markup, presumably in an effort to avoid public scrutiny. H.R. 5882 – "Recapturing Unused Employer-Sponsored Visas" This legislation is similar to the measure that Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) is using to hijack debate on E-Verify reauthorization in the Senate. The bill’s sponsor, Immigration Subcommittee Chairman Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif), claims it would “recapture unused employer-sponsored visas” from as far back as 1991 and then add them to the current numerical cap of 140,000 employer-sponsored visas that are available each year. Current law, however, clearly states that any employer-sponsored visas not used in one year are allocated to the family-preference categories in the following year. That means that there are no “unused” visas from past years to “recapture http://www.numbersusa.com/content/news/s...

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h110-2755 Ron Paul has been warning us for years (check out 'Its A Republic If You Can Keep It' or even the scattered minutes he was doled out at the GOP debates last year. Now FINALLY it is in all the papers 'too cheap interest rates by the fed over too long created malinvestment of too easy money, creating bubbles, first dot com now housing'. And the fed is totally nonelected and unconstitutionally delegated (as a separation of powers issue) to the executive branch. CONGRESS has the power of the purse in the Constitution, and can anyone pretend that separation from the executive was accidental? HR2755 would have a one year period of wind down with oversight then the Fed would disolve with the treasury taking back Fed assets, essentially. ABSOLUTELY contact your reps URGENTLY against the bailout - but to stop this going forward, this bill or something like it needs to be passed, clearly. What do you think of it? physics - running into a wall, you mean? Banks ran before the fed and their downturns were much shorter. Remember the Great Depression? Post-fed. cbrown12 - I had never focussed on the 'debts' as open accounts. Let me read that again. That is criminal. pfo we had the fed in the 1940s. And, more to the point, in the 1930s. Bernanke himself admits that the fed 'made mistakes' making the depression as bad as it was. They are keyensian econonomists, all of them, and we have finally reached the endpoint Austrian school economists have been warning would come, all along, by playing with interest rates and the money supply per keyensian economists. cbrown, HR2755 has a one year wind down point with an oversight committee and during that time would address future steps, but the bill itself has outlines.

the Motion to Proceed to H. R. 6049) A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide incentives for energy production and conservation, to extend certain expiring provisions, to provide individual income tax relief, and for other purposes. Obama was present (no vote) http://obama.senate.gov/votes/index.cfm?start=41 Thats nice kate play the race card to get out of the question. My dear I was never a Hillary fan, I do not believe in socialism.

I am a single 20 year old mother and I am 7 months pregnant, who is currently trying to come up with a way to afford a divorce because my husband has been cheating on me since I was 4.5 months pregnant and now is engaged & expecting a baby with the other woman and stuck with me with over $1500 worth of bills. I am currently unemployed but looking for a job, don’t qualify for temporary cash assistance, and have been on a waiting list for SSI for 3 years now but don’t think I can wait any longer because I only have $400 income per month. Right now I live at my moms old house rent free in exchange for raising my 16 year old sister since she got remarried and her new husband wants nothing to do with us. I have no one to talk to because my mom is not there at all emotionally for us and I don’t really have any family members that have anything to do with us. I want to go out and do something with my life and I want to move an hour away from here to Panama City (Florida), and try to go to college, get a decent job, and our own house or apartment but I’m not sure where to begin. I’m not sure I can even get any single mother grants because I am technically still married and I just can’t afford a divorce and he won’t pay for anything even though he has the money to do it and I know a lot of people are going to say ‘get an attorney’, but I can’t just pull money out of thin air. Also, I lived with my mom all year last year but my ex claimed my son (from a previous relationship) on his income taxes and ended up getting $4500 back and I knew about this but I didn’t sign anything although I was at the h&r block office with him and my mom wants to audit him but can I get in trouble for this too? I don’t know what to do or where to begin, all I know is that I need to get away from here ASAP. I need to figure out how to pay for college, get a decent job, find housing, and find daycare but where do I even begin? Its all so overwhelming.
I get child support for my firstborn which is the $400 but the new baby isn’t born yet so therefore I can’t file for child support yet.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Frank In 2003, Frank opposed Bush administration and Congressional Republican efforts for the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis.[28] Under the plan a new agency would have been created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry. "These two entities, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are not facing any kind of financial crisis," Frank said. He added, "The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."[28] As chairman, Frank steered the major housing relief bill of 2008 to passage, which aims to protect thousands of homeowners from foreclosure.[27] This law, H.R. 3221, The American Housing Rescue & Foreclosure Prevention Act, was the most important and complex issues on which he worked.[27][29] Frank was also instrumental is the passage of H.R. 5244, the Credit Cardholders’ Bill of Rights Act of 2008.[30]

This is the bill that would have expanded educational benefits for today's veterans. McCain says the benefits are too generous and would "encourage more people to leave the military." Chattanooga Times Free Press 6/2/08 and Boston Globe 5/23/08 S. Admt. 4803 to H.R. 2642, vote #137, 5/22/08
