01/13/2012: Target Republican Senators Picked by Irish Lobbysts for Support
of S. 1983 Schumer Bill
We reported earlier that supporters of S. 1983 that includes H.R. 3012 and
Irish E-3 nonimmigrant visa needed at least seven (7) Republican Senators to
break the potential filibuster by Sen. Chuck Grassley. Irish media is
actively soliciting Irish community to contact the following Senators:
Kentucky: Senator Mitch McConnell: 202-224-2541
Maine: Senator Susan Collins: 202-224-2523
Maine: Senator Olympia Snowe: 202-224-5344
Alaska: Senator Murkowski: 202-224-666
Indiana: Senator Lugar: 202-224-4814
Arizona: Senator John McCain: 202-224-2235
South Carolina: Senator Lindsey Graham: 202-224- 5972
Ohio: Senator Rob Portman: 202-224-3353
Florida: Senator Marco Rubio: 202-224-3041
Massachusetts: Senator Scott Brown: 202-224-4543
Pennsylvania: Senator Pat Toomey: 202-224-4254
Illinois: Senator Mark Kirk: 202-224-2854
New Hampshire: Senator Kelly Ayotte: 202-224-3324
Iowa: Senator Chuck Grassley: 202-224-3744
Texas: Senator John Cornyn: 202-224-2934
This reporter understands that the H.R. 3012 lobbysts and supporters,
including Indians, have been working hard to get seven Republican Senators.
We are not sure whether they are targetting at the same Republican Senators,
but time is running out and both communities must work hard to get their
bill sailed through the Senate floor successfully as soon as the Senate
returns to the session. January 23, 2012 meeting will be pro forma session
and there will be no votes and the supporters may want to have the bills
taken care of at least by the first week of February 2012. |

同意S1983，只同意Brown的S2005。于是Demo以阻止3012+2005进行威胁，要求加入
Irish undocumented，最后GOP为了3012通过也就同意了Demo的要求。
当然这只是推理。根据是，Schumer的bill后台非常强大，有民主党3巨头，加上所有民
主党议员（51 Demo + 2中立），由此看Demo不是很容易妥协。另外S2005是共和党人提
出的，即使过了Demo没有太多legislative credits. |
