Senate Action on Big Tech Green Card Bill S.386 [passes by unanimous consent - no recorded vote]
Center for Immigration Studies ^ | December 3, 2020 | Jessica M. Vaughan

Posted on 12/03/2020 7:55:18 AM PST by NobleFree

Update 12/3/20: A unanimous consent (UC) agreement for S.386 was reached and the bill was passed as amended.

Congress.gov has updated H.R.1044 as "Passed/agreed to in Senate" and has made the text of the Senate amendment available.

Jessica Vaughan, the Center's Director of Policy Studies, stated:

This would make a very significant change to the employment green card system, and moves us farther away from a merit-based process. It rewards the companies that replaced Americans with guest workers. Will the President sign it? https://t.co/b1VlB5VKkx

We are being played. For what it’s worth, we need to start showing up in force at the primaries to vote against every single incumbent. Every.Single. One. The message must be sent.

Trump should veto. Force them all to take an on-the-record override vote.

House and Senate versions still have to be reconciled; they may just dawdle in the hopes of a Biden presidency.

Everything for foreigners.

Nothing for Americans.

I can’t believe that with just a month until the Georgia runoff elections, the GOP incumbents each allowed this to happen. Are they TRYING to throw the Senate to the Rats?

And we need a way to fight that too. There is no single magic bullet - we have to fight on as many fronts as possible. By any means.

I’ve never known but working in a hospital many times all around me the nurses were from India, Korea, Somalia even. Dr.s were also from other countries. Is this due to this guest system?

So many patients complained they could not understand the doctor due to foreign accents and truthfully so many doctors had nothing but contempt for American patients of which were most of the census, except of course the Mexican illegals who had contempt for the American nurses.

All votes should be recorded and available for everyone to see.

I guess both Georgia senators supported this unanimous action?

No Roll Call vote. Gutless cowards everyone of them.

These bills have a “use by date” in that they will die at the end of the current session if not signed into law.

So explain to me why I should get excited about keeping the Senate, when they just knifed every US worker in the back?

And I’m suppose to care about the Georgia Runoffs. With the exception of Trump, not one of these people represent you or your family. The country is under attack and we sit here and tolerate it.

One tool we can use is the purse. The working right fuels the economy. Stop spending. This will entail major sacrifice but it’s no worse than what the left has in store for us, as the lockdowns have shown. Live a subsistence level for 4 years. No major purchases. The things you have to buy to exist buy from small business. No Wal-Mart. No Amazon, etc. etc. Barter as much as possible. We have the economic power to bring them to their knees. Hard times are ahead no matter which path we take. It’s only the future at stake.
