.@repbuddycarter Please oppose H.R. 4393. 43.5 million U.S.-born, working-age Americans are outside the labor force. There is no worker shortage – only a bill that would bail out illegal employers and leave sidelined Americans with nothing.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Police chiefs pleaded guilty to selling U visa certifications at $5,000 a name, and roughly 300 people got visas out of it. Over 416,000 petitions are pending against a cap of 10,000. Please work to end the U visa program.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Immigration judges ordered nearly 79,000 removals in June, but most were ordered in absentia – people released years ago who never appeared. H.R. 9773 would require detention. The Senate should be ready to pass it.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Yosemite is overcrowded. Even huge parks - and nations! - are subject to limits. Mass immigration adds to the demand for limited public lands. Cosponsor S. 1328 to protect our quality of life.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Please cosponsor S. 1151. American workers are gaining ground as enforcement expands, but executive action can be undone with the stroke of a pen. Mandatory E-Verify would lock those gains into permanent law.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Border releases have been at zero for 14 straight months, but those gains last only as long as the executive policies behind them. When the House passes the Permanent Trump Secure Border Act, the Senate must be ready to act.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff When jobs can’t be filled with illegally underpaid labor, wages rise and Americans take them. Construction pay is proving it right now. The Senate should pass S. 1151 and make E-Verify permanent law.
@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Asylum standards have flipped with every change of administration. DOJ’s own numbers show reform works – but only statute makes it stick. The Senate should be ready to pass H.R. 9773 the moment the House sends it over.
.@repbuddycarter Thank you for staying off the Dream and Promise Act amnesty. Now refuse to sign its discharge petition. Amnesty rewards illegal immigration and invites the next border crisis. Americans voted for enforcement.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Hiring slowed to just 57,000 jobs in June. American workers need Congress to act. Please cosponsor S. 1151, the Accountability Through Electronic Verification Act, to mandate E-Verify and end illegal job competition.
.@repbuddycarter The House Judiciary Committee takes up the Permanent Trump Secure Border Act today. 80% of voters want immigration laws enforced. The House should pass H.R. 9773 and write today’s border security gains into permanent law.
.@repbuddycarter Border security gains made by executive action can be undone by executive action. The House is moving legislation to write them into permanent law. It’s time to pass it and permanently secure the border.
.@repbuddycarter The U-visa program meant to help crime victims has become a fraud-ridden backdoor to work permits, with 416,000 cases backlogged. Please cosponsor H.R. 8628, the End U Visa Abuse Act, to shut it down for good.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Sanctuary releases endanger Americans nationwide – nearly 7,000 criminal aliens freed in New York, 33,000 held in California under ignored detainers. The Senate should support and pass S. 3790, the Protect America Act.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff With birthright citizenship now locked in, stopping the illegal entries that trigger it matters more than ever – and court wins don’t last. The House is set to pass the Secure the Border Act; the Senate must be ready.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff The H-1B cap fills every year because the law lets hundreds of thousands of foreign workers slip past the limit. S. 2941, the Visa Cap Enforcement Act, closes the loopholes. With layoffs still mounting, Congress should pass it.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff Court wins can be narrowed and executive actions reversed, but a statute lasts. The Court backed enforcement on asylum and TPS, not birthright. When the House passes H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, the Senate must pass it too.
.@repbuddycarter@SenatorWarnock@SenOssoff States that depend on the Colorado River are facing chronic drought and water shortages demand continues to rise. Immigration is driving population growth and increasing pressure on an overstressed river system. Cosponsor S. 1328.
