The bill is DOA in the House making this all beltway theater. This is probably just the Senate GOP throwing a bone to their open borders corporate donors.

The reason Mitch put Lankford in charge of giving the Democrats everything they wanted on this bill was Lankford was elected in 2022 and won’t have to face the voters in Oklahoma for another 4 years and thus he figures Oklahomans will have forgotten his treachery. If I were an Oklahoman I would not forget and would hope he gets primaried come 2026

Excerpted from wiki...

In March 1967, shortly before the expiration of his educational draft deferment upon graduation from law school, McConnell enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserve as a private at Louisville, Kentucky.... This was a coveted position because the Reserve units were mostly kept out of combat during the Vietnam War....His first day of training at Fort Knox, Kentucky, was July 9, 1967, two days after taking the bar exam, and his last day was August 15, 1967....Shortly after his arrival he was diagnosed with optic neuritis and deemed medically unfit for military service, and was honorably discharged...His brief time in service has repeatedly been put at issue by his political opponents during his electoral campaigns.

This Veteran, from the same era, suspects that somehow there might be draft dodging weasels and then it's just possible that there are especially artful dodgers.

Mitch walked all over Trump, and he had Trump put her into his Admin. Reagan and Bush also hired the ccp spy as well.

“...Reduce congressional staffing to two employees each...”

and limit bills to 20 pages. How many people worked on a 350+ page bill? Thank goodness that enough people actually read this one.

Mumbai Mike Lee is against a bill that provides EAD to aging-out children of H1Bs. That says something after his S386 unanimous consent nonsense.

If Mike Lee, a man who introduced legislation that would allow companies to have 50% of their workforce be H1B visas, is against this, it is either the absolute worst betrayal of the American people in history or he is jockeying for McConnell’s position…or both, possibly.

Thank you for educating / reminding everyone about this. Mike Lee is a snake.
