GOP Washington Cartel : New Spending Omnibus Bill to SECRETLY increase Quadruple H1B Visas is 2016 !


The House omnibus bill, released last night, includes a provision that would quadruple the number of H-2B visas for low-skilled guest workers. The measure would increase the number of H-2B visa workers allowed in the U.S. in 2016 from 66,000 to around 264,000.

The new provision does not increase the current H-2B visa cap of 66,000 but would exclude any worker who has already received an H-2B visa in the last three years.



SEC. 565. Section 214(g)(9)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1184(g)(9)(A)) is amended by striking ... 2004, 2005, or 2006 shall not again be counted toward such limitation during fiscal year 2007 ... and inserting ... 2013, 2014, or 2015 shall not again be counted toward such limitation during fiscal year 2016 ...



The H-2B visa was designed to bring in low-skilled, temporary and seasonal workers. This provision would increase the job competition for some of America’s most vulnerable families during a time when jobs are still hard to find for lower skilled jobs. Employers like to hire H-2B workers because their visa is tied to to the company, which prevents many from complaining or unionizing when mistreated. Recently Buzzfeed did an expose on the H-2B visa and how it replaces American workers and exploits foreign workers.

The omnibus insert was sponsored by Sen. Barabara Mikulski (D-Md.) and Senator Thom Tillis (R-N.C.).


The spending bill will also fully fund the (Syrian) Refugee Resettlement program.

Ted Cruz : EPIC Plan to DEFEAT Obama-GOPe Illegal Immigration and HALT-PROSECUTE H1B Visa Abuse

President Ted Cruz's EPIC Plan to Defeat Illegal Immigraion and Stop-Criminalize H1B Visa Abuse

Ted Cruz Rally at Faith Assembly of God in Orlando, Florida

Fox News Network (FNN) Youtube Video

2015-11-13



=========================================


Senator Ted Cruz presented a brilliant, comprehensive, and effective plan to protect Americans' safety and employment with an "epic" speech in Orlando (2015-11-13).


Senator Ted Cruz specifically targeted the corrupt H1B Visa Program that U.S. Corporations (aided by Obama and the corrupt GOPe-RINO Washington Cartel).

Senator Ted Cruz's speech is a "must see" event. The Youtube video link is provided below, along with a "time mark" summary of Ted Cruz's major points (41 total).

Ted Cruz's EPIC Immigration and H1B Visa Speech -- Orlando -- 2015-11-13 ... (Click)




Rush Limbaugh has best stated Senator Ted Cruz's strategic and magnificent contributions to defeating Obama and the GOPe-RINO establishment with these words:

We stopped the Gang of Eight bill. Ted Cruz led the fight against the establishment. We would be living under amnesty right now if Cruz had not succeeded.



Perhaps the most fascinating and optimistic aspect of Senator Ted Cruz's speech is that he respectfully listened to the growing awareness and concerns about the immoral and illegal violations of the H1B Visa program.

The American Tea Party chorus against the corrupt H1B Visa Program was reflected in an open letter (at Free Republic) by a staunch Ted Cruz supporter.

Contrary to "Global Establishment Politicians" such as America's Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and Mitch McConnell, and Germany's Angela Merkel, Senator Ted Cruz appears to have actually listened to "We The People" on the issue of H1B Visas.

What an Incredible Miracle.



Clearly, Senator Ted Cruz MUST win election as America's Forty-Fifth President to safely secure the God-Given Rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness for our children and grandchildren.

Godspeed, President Ted Cruz.

CRUZ PLAN TO STOP ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION HIGHLIGHTS

Its not that we dont know how to solve illegal immigration. What is missing is the political will to get it done. And, as president, I will get it done. We will secure the borders. Ted Cruz


SECURE THE BORDER

A Cruz Administrations first priority for immigration reform will be to secure the U.S.-Mexico border. We will:

Build a wall that works. The unsecured border with Mexico invites illegal immigrants, criminals, and terrorists to tread on American soil. I will complete the wall.

Triple the number of Border Patrol agents. Securing the border is the federal governments obligation. I will dedicate the force necessary to do that.

Increase vital aerial surveillance and other technology along the border. Adding boots on the ground is not enough. Eyes in the sky and other equipment are necessary to find and detain all illegal entrants.

Finish the biometric tracking system at our nations ports of entry. It is disgraceful that our federal government cannot keep track of those who enter the country. I will complete a biometric entry-exit tracking system.


RESTORE THE RULE OF LAW

We need a President who will follow the law, hold those who break it accountable, and take seriously the duty to protect Americans. To restore the Rule of Law, a Cruz Administration will:

End President Obamas illegal amnesty. President Obama has issued over 20 illegal executive memoranda rewarding illegality. I will rescind each and every one on my first day in office.

Increase deportations and end catch-and-release. Our laws are not being enforced. I will restore our commitment to enforcement, public safety, and the Rule of Law by rededicating DHS to fully enforcing the law, including through deportations and returns.

End sanctuary policies, sign Kates Law, and deport criminal immigrants. There are about 340 sanctuary jurisdictions in the United States. They make a mockery of our laws and endanger our citizens. I will end support for these jurisdictions.

Prohibit illegal immigrants from receiving financial benefits and strengthen E-Verify. American taxpayers should not be funding benefits for those who are here illegally, and American jobs should not go to those who are here illegally. I will protect Americans’ wellbeing by stopping the flow of taxpayer dollars and instituting a strong e-verify system.


REFORM LEGAL IMMIGRATION TO PROTECT AMERICANS

In order to strengthen our immigration system, protect national security, and better serve American workers, we must:

Suspend the issuance of all H-1B visas for 180 days to complete a comprehensive investigation and audit of pervasive allegations of abuse of the program.

New allegations detail appalling abuses of the H-1B visa program ... a program meant to create American jobs and spur economic growth.

I will suspend the program for 180 days to investigate abuses.

Halt any increases in legal immigration so long as American unemployment remains unacceptably high.

The purpose of legal immigration should be to grow the economy, not to displace American workers.

Under no circumstances should legal immigration levels be adjusted upwards so long as work force participation rates remain below historical averages.




Enforce the public-charge doctrine. Current law requires legal immigrants to certify that they will be economically self-sufficient. A Cruz Administration will ensure they do not receive government assistance, which defies the law and harms American taxpayers.

End birthright citizenship. Birthright citizenship was not intended to legalize the children of people who are breaking the law by entering and staying in the country illegally. I will take steps to pass legislation or a constitutional amendment to end it.


We stopped the Gang of Eight bill. Ted Cruz led the fight against the establishment. We would be living under amnesty right now if Cruz had not succeeded.

Rush Limbaugh

I sure hope Ted Cruz doesn’t act like a maniac, scream, and call anyone a liar. You have to have the right temperament and make deal in order to be a senator.

Mitch McConnell is a “liar” ... that’s a “fact” ... I applaud Ted Cruz for having the courage to state the truth ...

Would you have the same courage ?

Paul Ryan says this bill will be voted on tomorrow, Thursday, 17 Dec. Could be tonight.

No one has yet addressed H-2B visas that I know of, low-skilled workers. With a participation rate showing millions out of work, WHY would anyone dream of increasing low-skill visas?

Why would Ryan push to fund Obama’s Syria refugee program?

Has Sessions come on line about this?

“With a participation rate showing millions out of work, WHY would anyone dream of increasing low-skill visas?”

Because they are traitors to the United States.

Take a bow, Ryan.

“Paul Ryan says this bill will be voted on tomorrow, Thursday, 17 Dec. Could be tonight.”

If this bill passes, no one can blame Obama. It is strictly on the Republicans.

The Republicans have become the driving force behind the Obama agenda. Obama may be the first president to be a lame duck and have the opposition party carry his water.

Last night the Republicans were giving Obama and Hillary credit to what is going on in this country. They could have included the Republicans Congress, especially Rubio.
