Per-country visa caps hurt the American economy—preventing U.S. employers from staying competitive—& hurt families.
I've introduced the bipartisan EAGLE Act w/@RepJohnCurtis to move toward a better system.

@DHSgov@AliMayorkas The EB backlogged community is hopeful to get your support too in making sure that none of the EB Visa is wasted this year and in the future . EB GC is just not a number, it means freedom and new life for many of us.
Can someone explain the purpose of trying to guarantee adjudications 300 days after a first hearing? They say it’s unfair to make them wait but it’s more unfair to bypass people already waiting far longer. I can’t imagine there is any deterrent effect. So? https://t.co/p6SLgIcpTy
LATER TODAY: The @HouseJudiciary Immigration Subcommittee is holding a hearing titled “Why Don’t They Just Get in Line? Barriers to Legal Immigration.”

@seungminkim On skilled immigration, 4 big changes -
Recapture of 200K+ green cards which will rapidly decrease the backlogs in family and employment categories.
+
No longer counting spouses and kids in EB quotas.
+
No cap on doctoral-level STEM workers
+
H-4 EADs protected by statute
Our immigration system is cruel, confusing, and expensive—even for people who have lived, worked, and raised families here for years.
I have a plan to humanely transform immigration into a process that puts dignity and family unity at its center.

@KamalaHarris@JoeBiden Do you also have a roadmap for documented immigrants to become undocumented and be eligible for citizenship. Sorry, but how long shall we have to suffer more? Please listen to the plight of 600k legal immigrants and give them the path to citizenship as well.
@tiffanybaldwin1 So true and clearly articulate how this discriminatory process works. We are already in decade long wait lines. This inequality has to end. #S386
Congratulations and Best wishes to @AliMayorkas We keep our hopes alive that you will be the one to ultimately resolve, decade long Greencard Backlog issue and the one to bring meaningful reforms to Skilled Immigration, retaining the fairness principles America was built upon.
I’m back everybody, sorry to keep you hanging!! It was a very very busy time, but I won’t abandon you again! While I was gone, the Heat almost did it (very proud), Monaco sucks and the team should be sent to Siberia, Tua is in! And let’s get S.386 finally done!!
@SenRickScott@MiamiHerald This article is rubbish. No facts. Senator Durbin and Senator Lee has made great improvements in the bill to protect people who need protection and eliminate the decade long discrimination. EB Visa’s are more diversity visa.
