As this reporter predicted earlier, the forthcoming important Irish St.
Patrick's Day celebration in this country can give a momentum for these
legislative bills. The Irish media agrees with this reporter's assessment by
reporting today that this week (02/27/2012-03/02/2012) will be a key week
for the fate of these bills. They hope that they see a break through in
negotiation with Sen. Grassley or obtain at least 60 Senators to pass the
bills swiftly within this week. From such hope, apparently Irish community
is pumping up lobby activities to get support from the members of the House
such that when the bill(as) as amended goes back to the House, the bills are
not seriously challenged because of the Irish E-3 amendment. They also
recognize, just as this reporter predicted, that the bills as amended may
face a different floor in the House, different for the floor where the stand
-alone H.R. 3012 was swiftly passed with 365 absolute majority with only 15
nays. In this regard, the passage of these bills, as amended, in the Senate
will be considered a success but not a complete success. Supporters of these
bills may have to go through another cycle of painful struggle, this time
in the House. What happens if Israeli E-2 bill (investment nonimmigrant visa
) which is pending in the House attempts to be attached to this bill in the
form of amendment? Who knows! Read on.
