Worker shortage leads to our landscape vehicles parked in the height of spring. The days that go by will crush seasonal small business in 2022 if visas are not released. #releasethevisas#h2b@SecMartyWalsh@SecMayorkas
What's the word...are we going to #releasethevisas anytime soon? #h2b is essential to seasonal businesses and economies - local and national. #h2blawyer
So what? It's not that these are jobs Americans won't do. They're jobs *unemployed* Americans won't do. H-2B jobs can be applied for and obtained here by any U.S. worker at any time: https://t.co/5zp8cNeJnx https://t.co/SWgeCLVV9r
35 Senators signed the @SenatorRounds@SenAngusKing#H2B letter. Thank you to Rounds and King for initiating the letter and to the Senators who signed.
We are expecting a similar letter to circulate in the House. Stay tuned and thanks again for your tremendous outreach!
This is ridiculous. We r running a biz without 3/4 of our staff. Because we have been working an extreme amount of overtime, the limited amount of staff we have is calling in sick. Every day we r losing biz. There is only so much biz u can lose b4 going out of biz. #saveh2b#h2b
Please retweet. Save the #H2B program. Our small landscape business is hurting after the #H2B program was halted. Thousands of small businesses that rely on seasonal labor are hurting unnecessarily. Please #releasethevisas@DHSgov@SEA_labor@TomCottonAR@H2Bworkforce
@RodneyR58127664@NumbersUSA@RepJerryNadler@EconomicPolicy Go speak to any local landscape company in your area and ask them how staffing is going.
Read any landscape industry specific magazines about labor. There is absolutely a shortage!
We don’t make this stuff up. We live it every day!! It’s our livelihoods. #saveH2B
More people will cross the border illegally this month than will be allowed in for seasonal businesses under the #H2B program in an entire year. Congress will ignore the border crisis while maintaining that 66,000 is enough for seasonal businesses in all 50 states.🤡🤡🤡 #SaveH2B
@SEA_labor@DHSgov@Genna_Douglas @acaldwellwsj Is anyone listening? Does anyone in Congress understand that they have the power to help these seasonal businesses?
Don’t just sit there and do nothing. Please help them!
Full-time American jobs are in jeopardy as a result! #saveH2B
We want answers. We need answers. We deserve to know if we can hang onto our livelihoods. Release the extra Visas. It’s already received bipartisan support, just release them
