Reform system to help immigrants from Poland

There is no effort being made by our Immigration and Naturalization Service INS officials to deport millions of illegal aliens in the USA. However Polish immigrants who come here LEGALLY, are often being deported back to Poland because Poland is not accorded the protection of a first class Visa, given to other countries. No effort s being made to resolve this inequity to Polish citizens in the USA.

Stan - I believe you are referring to the visa waiver program which the majority of Europe enjoys. Poland has been denied this status primarily because there is a high percentage of Poles that come to the U.S. on a tourist visa and never go back. The Bush administration tried to allow Poland into the visa waiver program but the effort stalled in congress. Congress tried again in the last session but this was not one of the Obama administration's priorities so the effort died again. The best thing to do is to keep bugging your congressional delegation to get the legislation passed. Poland is a NATO ally and has been a good fried to the U.S. for decades. It really is inexcusable that Poland is not in the visa waiver program.
