发帖数: 2 | 1 Thank you for contacting me to express your support for S. 1857, the
Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act. Your opinion is very
important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you on
this critical issue.
You will be pleased to know that I support legislation that eliminates
the per country limits for employment-based green cards and increases
the per country limit on family visas from 7 to 15 percent. This
provision was included within my Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of
2011. My legislation also ensures that unused visa numbers in a given
year will "roll over" to the next fiscal year; recaptures unused visas;
and includes STEM reforms that exempt individuals in the science,
technology and engineering fields from the limits.
We must look to enact practical, smart, and substantial immigration
reform that reflects current economic and social realities, respects the
core values of family unity and fundamental fairness, and upholds our
tradition as a nation of immigrants. Please rest assured that I will
keep your views in mind as I review legislation on this issue.
Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts with me. This issue is very
important to me and I appreciate your support. Please do not hesitate
to contact me if I can be of further assistance. I invite you to visit
