Modernizing the US Visa Waiver Programme will strengthen our national security and enhance international relationships with important allies like Poland, who have been denied visa-free travel because of an outdated regime," said Representative Mike Quigley (Dem) who introduced The Visa Waiver Enhanced Security and Reform Act to Congress yesterday.

This certainly caught me off guard - is it possible that one of these bills might actually pass? Since President Obama wants it, I can't imagine Republicans allowing it to become a reality...certainly not in an election year.

y dropping visa requirements for Poles, President Barack Obama could be hoping for a boost in popularity among Polish Americans, with the forthcoming presidential election in November.

Not all of them would be happy if that bill will pass.

I'm not sure if I would be. Poles aren't gonna come here anyway. Hardly any went to Germany since the opened their borders.
