Worked with other members of an informal coalition of religious organizations to lobby for legislation to extend the special immigrant nonminister religious worker program beyond September 30, 2009. HR 2679, a bill to "extend certain immigration programs, and for other purposes," was introduced on June 3. Urged members of the House Committee on Appropriations to consider attaching the language of HR 2679 as an amendment to the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations bill. Signed my client on to a group-sign on letter, along with other members of the informal coalition of religious organizations that are lobbying for legislation to extend the special immigrant nonminister religious worker program beyond September 30, that was sent to the Secretary of Homeland Security. As religious organizations that either use, or have constituencies that use the Religious Worker Visa Program (RWVP), the groups signed the letter to bring to the Secretary's attention a recent federal district court decision affecting the RWVP under a class action lawsuit. The Federal District Court for the Western District of Washington recently held that the current regulation, in effect since 2002, of excluding the concurrent filing of Form I-360, which is filed to qualify for the special immigrant religious worker category with the adjustment of status application, Form I-485 should be discontinued. The Court stated that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) should not treat special immigrant religious workers differently than all other employment-based preference categories that are permitted to file the Form I-140 concurrently with the Form I-485. Ruiz-Diaz v. United States of America, Case 2.07-cv-01881-RSL (W.D.Wash)(2009); 2008 WL 2645495 (W.D. Wash.). The letter asked the Secretary to instruct the Department of Justice to let the Courts decision stand.
