On June 7^th and June 8^th 2010, around 150 high-skilled professionals including scientists, engineers and doctors will converge in Washington DC to meet with the nation’s lawmakers on Capitol Hill and impress upon the urgent need for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. The intent of this wide-ranging two day advocacy event, coordinated by Immigration Voice, will be to highlight the plight of about a million high-skilled professionals and their families who are unable to obtain permanent residence or green card due to a broken immigration system.

Around 150 Immigration Voice members from across the country are planning to have over 300 Congressional meetings on the Hill, meeting over half the Congress in two days, to petition the federal government for fix green card backlogs.
