Good news..a BIPARTISAN bill was introduced in the Senate in January to increase the H1-B visas from 65,000 to 195,000.

Sponsored by 6 Senators...3 Repubs and 3 Dems.

Sessions is the only one who constantly stands up to defend Americans.
But he has an "R" after his name so he's a bad guy..right ?

The voting is what matters, not the introduction of it. The voting will tell us who is and isn't a friend of American employees

Yes but the voting hasn't happened.
That 3 R's and 3 D's sponsored this should tell you that this is not one sided though.

Just checked..it has not gone to committee so let's hope it dies right where it it.."introduced".

i just hope millions and millions of uneducated illegals keep pouring across our borders so I can help pay for them to live comfortable happy lives and millions take Erican jobs. Nice way to bust unions eh? Flood the laborers market with illegals willing to work for peanuts.

Oh the irony, unions and blue collar folks voting thenselves out of work and into welfare. I love it! 😂😂

S-153 is sponsored by Orrin Hatch.
There are now 12 cosponsors, 4 Dems, 1 Indy and 7 Repubs, including McCain and Rubio.

Not anymore it looks. You look at the liberals on this boards. Those who are pro immigration seem to be in the minority. Those liberals who are against immigration are quite a big percentage now. It certainly shows public opinion change.

Unions have always been racist and xenophobic.

Anti-immigration arises during tough economic times and high unemployment, and subsides during good economic times with low unemployment. That's the extent of public opinion regarding this matter. Liberal or conservative doesn't matter.

It was sarcasum.. I think they should all get a free bus ride back to wear they or their parents came from. Don't care if they were born here or not. If your parents are here illegally you are to. Follow the same process the rest of the countries legal immigrants followed. That includes my grandparents.
