Now that reconciliation instructions say $107 Billion for - lawful permanent status for qualified immigrants, we’d point out that backlogged immigrants have already been adjudicated as “qualified” by USCIS
And we are happy to pay a fee to help the undocumented legalize #NoExcuses

WaPo published my op-ed about the 100,000 employment-based green cards going to waste. "Unless there is a change of heart soon, Biden will assume responsibility for denying thousands of immigrants the path to citizenship that Congress promised them." https://t.co/BgGPPfezzw

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

In March 2021, Charlie said that since USCIS was able to process 95% of EB cases in FY 2020 under trying times, he was hopeful that it would be able to do the same in FY 2021 with a much higher limit and "maximize number use under the 262 limit." But by June, his tune changed...

The ones who oppose removal of birth country caps from Employment based Green Cards need to see this thread and justify how this is okay. Is this what America stands for? #EAGLEAct

[Ian D. Wagreich @IanDWagreich]

The National Immigration Forum is endorsing the EAGLE Act. The Act proposes to phase out the 7% per-country limit on EB immigrant visas and raise the per-country limits on family- based cases. https://t.co/RDJDpHk7Z2

[Amazon Public Policy @amazon_policy]

@RepZoeLofgren @RepJohnCurtis Thank you for your leadership in addressing the visa backlog for thousands of workers who contribute to our economy. The Equal Access to Green cards for Legal Employment Act will enable US employers like Amazon to focus on building dynamic teams.

[Business Software Alliance @BSAnews]

BSA welcomes the bipartisan introduction of the #EAGLEAct of 2021 from @RepZoeLofgren and @RepJohnCurtis. Updates to America's employment-based immigrant visa programs are key to attract and retain high-skilled workers in the US. https://t.co/T107iiMwMH

[Senator John Curtis @SenJohnCurtis]

June is #ImmigrantHeritageMonth — I'm proud to introduce a new bipartisan bill with @RepZoeLofgren to create a more fair employment-based visa system by eliminating per-country limitations & creating a first-come, first-served system focused on merit instead of country of origin.

[Andy Stone @andymstone]

Facebook thanks @RepZoeLofgren and @RepJohnCurtis for introducing the EAGLE Act, which will update and significantly improve the green card system by reducing the existing barriers for employment-based high-skilled immigration.

[Intel Policy @IntelPolicy]

[Jack Chen (he/him) @jakchen]

#Percountrylimits have created enormous distortions in EB green card backlogs. That's why we've been advocating for their removal for a decade. Grateful to @RepZoeLofgren and @RepJohnCurtis for their bipartisan effort on this issue. A great way to start #ImmigrantHeritageMonth.

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

Oh wow! Big news. #EagleAct includes the #Fairness For High Skilled Immigrants Act. It looks a lot like the pre-Scott amendment Senate Fairness redraft from last Congress. I can't wait to take a deeper look https://t.co/6aVU72Wq4r

[Rep. Zoe Lofgren @RepZoeLofgren]

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.
