Legal High Skilled Immigrant in a 30+ year queue for my Green Card.I Suffer from effects of corruption in Washington DC. Views expressed are my personal opinion
Crucial Action Item:
Call @SenRickScott at (202) 224-5274 to ask him to remove his hold on S.386
Senator Rick Scott wants to bring in 18,000 Chinese in the middle of a COVID crisis, and yet he denies protections for American workers, and he denies equality amongst immigrants.
This may not be your intent, but it is exactly what @SenRickScott’s amendment does
We are happy to explain if we can get a meeting with the Senator. Meanwhile every concern raised in your Miami Herald op-Ed can also be explained as to why it is incorrect
https://t.co/zEbVhCOhhL
All concerns raised by @SenRickScott in his oped are addressed (with data & evidence) in this oped https://t.co/zEbVhCOhhL S.386 is good for Florida & Floridians. There is no reason for Senator Scott to continue to hold this good bill, which protects American workers across US.
Our sincere thanks to team @NBC2 for covering the protest for equality to @SenRickScott's house in Naples. These highly-skilled immigrant families are doctors, nurses, engineers & entrepreneurs.The bill #S386 has 99 senators support in the congress #FLS386Rally#flpol@SenMikeLee
As written, S386 HELPS American workers as bringing equality benefits all. This bill is NOT asking to increase the number of Green cards but only remove the arbitrary country cap! The employer doesn’t ask for country of birth while hiring so it makes no sense!
@immivoice@SenRickScott The op-ed he wrote is full of conjecture and doesn't really explain the 18000 GC carve out he requested on the Senate floor for Hakka and Cantonese speaking Chinese?
@SenRickScott doesn’t know that most of the likes of his tweets are Iranian and Chinese govt. bots, which he claims to dislike. But his amendment helps them, @SenRickScott ‘s amendment will bring in 18,000 chinese immigrants to US every year in the middle of the COVID crisis.
@SenRickScott@MiamiHerald Is that the reason why you asked for a carve out of 18000 GC's for Cantonese, Hakka speaking Chinese through your amendment? Why don't you clarify that specific carve out you asked on the senate floor but conveniently forgot to mention in the Op-Ed?
@iamshalabhkumar@NeilMunroDC@SenRickScott@RandPaul@SenatorDurbin We have never seen one positive thing this man has done. All he does is criticize, and engage in morally questionable deeds.
When this bill passes, he will surely take credit for a bill that he doesn’t even know what is currently in it!
@DailyCaller .@SenRickScott Be on the right side of the history. I hope you don't want to be remembered for all the wrong reasons. Read #S386 bill carefully to understand that your demands have already been taken care of by multiple other provisions. #UnblockS386
Dear @SenRickScott, we know it will be hard to explain logic to you because you don’t even know where cities in Florida are but the Lee-Durbin compromise already addressed all of your concerns. What you did today will lead to needless death and deportation https://t.co/72pbcWaahg
Finally, the issue of protecting the privileged position of people who seek inequality have already been resolved well in their favor.
Time to pass the bill now. The fact that they themselves & @SenatorDurbin would create a new issue to block equality will not be tolerated.
To be clear, the backlogged community stands behind @SenMikeLee 100%.
Senator Lee is NOT demanding ransoms to achieve equality for all people that @SenatorDurbin demands.
People seeking additional ransoms for equality are the problem and will continue to be treated as such.

Call 202-224-2152 & tell the racist all that fancy arguments will never EVER change the fact that “Separate is NOT equal”.
#DurbinLiesImmigrantsDie
@IraKurzban Most Indians don't support the bill coz we know he isn't being honest & has no intention of solving the real problem. Imagine asking UC for a bill for which no text is available? What he's good at is introducing bills & doing nothing to pass them.
#S386#DurbinLiesImmigrantsDie
When immigrants like me call @SenatorDurbin
A racist based on our own experiences with him, For profit racists comes out of woodwork to come and tell us virtues we havent seen.
