I am petitioning President Obama's Administration to take a humane view of the plight of legal immigrants. Specifically, legal immigrants in Employment Based (EB) category. I believe, such immigrants were short changed in the recently announced reforms via Executive Action (EA), which was otherwise long due and a welcome announcement. The EA does not give a time bound relief to the EB category.
Immigrants in the EB category have to wait many years (a decade or more sometimes) before they can get Permanent Residency or "Green Card".
Please give at least a Work Permit (EAD) and other announced relief to legal immigrants with Immigration Petition approved *before* giving to any undocumented immigrant. I think they deserve that for following the letter of the law.
