Companies are now nominating roughly 250,000 employees and family members for the green cards each year, even though the government only provides 120,000 cards. This policy means the backlog of foreign wait-and-work employees is getting larger as companies use it to extend the stay of supposedly temporary contract-workers, regardless of country caps.

Here are the GOP turncoats:

Hey Democrats - you’re always talking about what a horrible racist sexist homophobe country the US is, so do these people a favor and keep them the hell out of it.

and it is being quarterbacked by the immigration lawyer who helped Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer write the disastrous “Gang of Eight” amnesty in 2013.

Which Flimsey Grahamnesty, Micro Rubio, Alexander, Murkowsky and Hoeven all voted for.

Bush League Republicans MUST become extinct before the Republic does.

Up their exit port.
Strip them of citizenship and deport them and their families to India since they love it so much.

No point in voting Republican, at least not for these anti-American clowns. Glad I don't have any college age kids. I wouldn't be able to advise them on a career path. All the tech fields are flooded with cheap foreign labor.

This is exactly the kind of thing that must be stopped.

I keep telling everybody that unless they worked for one of the big banks like I do, they have no idea how many H1b Indians they have working for them. I’d say 1/4 of the work force. No, its not just tech jobs they are doing either. Its all sorts of jobs. You cannot possibly tell me that the banks can’t find qualified Americans to do those jobs.

We need to pass laws to make it more expensive to hire foreign labor than Americans. What companies and their bought and paid for politicians are doing is rigging the game. This is not the free market when companies are free to import armies of cheap labor.

Indian graduates to take U.S. jobs from middle class American graduates.

“Roughly 108 Republicans have co-sponsored the green card giveaway, called HR.104”:
My Rep ia not on this list. Good!

Sad example of our donor-bound Reps.

This story first broke about one week ago on a couple of the immigration specialist websites.

You know what disturbs me the most?

No mention of Donald Trump.

Our Immigration-Warrior-In-Chief (LOL!) has not said ONE word about Congress trying to fast track this veto proof immigration bill past his desk.

Trump is not stupid or weak.

In my opinion, Trump is totally (and silently) complicit on passing this bill.

The author correctly notes that more than 100 GOP Congressmen support this bill, even though Silicon Valley is doing everything it can to destroy the Republican Party.

The author forgot to mention that Asian-Indian Americans are overwhelmingly Leftist.

2012 - 80% of Asian-Indians vote to reelect Obama.

2016 - 77% of Asian-Indians vote for Hillary Clinton.

I wish folks luck with Tom Reed.

His district will likely be gerrymandered. Again.

I’m betting he votes for it because of that.
