Contact your elected officials and ask that they NOT support H.R. 1219 -

the bill was introduced on March 10, 2005 and would eliminate "the diversity immigrant program" green card lottery because of concerns re: possible abuse by terrorists.
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c109:H.R.1219:

and would change the following legislation
INA: ACT 201 - WORLDWIDE LEVEL OF IMMIGRATION 1/
Sec. 201. [8 U.S.C. 1151] http://uscis.gov/lpBin/lpext.dll/inserts/slb/slb-1/slb-22/slb-1150?f=templates&fn=document-frame.htm

The bill has been forwarded to a sub-committee and although it has gained supporters it can STILL be defeated but this needs the support of people contacting their elective officials - both those who support it and those who are as yet undeclared or undecided.
