Visa free travel for Poles to the U.S.?

The U.S. Senate on Wednesday approved an amendment to the Immigration Act, indicating that Poland will be included in the Visa Waiver programme

Under the current Visa Waiver programme, the United States does not require visas from citizens of 15 of the 25 countries in the EU, but the scheme does not apply to Greece or the 10 new member states, except Slovenia. Poland has not been named in the amendment to the Immigration Act but it is the only new EU member country meeting the updated requirements. The amendments speak of such countries which are EU members, have provided military aid to the U.S. in Iraq (at least 300 soldiers) and do not pose a terrorist threat.
