it to reach 195,000 in years of high demand; removes the limits on
immigrants with advanced degrees; allows the spouses of H-1B visa holders to
work, so that they not be confined to their homes; and eases restrictions
on changing jobs so that workers not be held hostage to abusive employers
who pay lower than market wages. Most importantly, it enables the recapture
of unused green card numbers in order to reduce wait times for the more than
a million skilled immigrants who are trapped in limbo, often waiting for
more than a decade to get their visas. And it exempts advanced STEM-degree
holders, persons with extraordinary ability, and dependents of skilled
immigrants from the visa caps. To retrain American workers who have seen
their skills become obsolete because of technology changes, the Hatch bill
reforms the way in which the hefty fees for H-1B visas and employment-based
green cards are used.
