GOP Sen. Mike Lee urged Indian supporters of his green cards giveaway bill to press Democratic leader Sen. Dick Durbin to stand aside on Thursday so Lee can pass his bill which rewards Indian graduates who take jobs from American graduates. Lee’s call to Indians came during his surprise live broadcast from his Senate website:
I’m going to seek unanimous consent again tomorrow to try to pass this bill in law tomorrow. We are concerned about the possibility of an objection being brought forward by my colleague, Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois. I hope that Mr. Durbin does not decide to bring about an objection. Mr. Durbin is a friend of mine. He and I have worked together on a number of issues. So if you happen to know Mr. Durbin, or know of anyone who is close to him, or who he might listen to him, please encourage him to not object to unanimous consent passage of the Fairness for High Skilled Immigrants. If he doesn’t object, we can get this thing passed and get it passed tomorrow.
Lee’s statement was in response to a question from a temporary visa worker in Salt Lake City, named “Akheel,” (ph), who said he has been living in the United States and working for 15 years to eventually get a green card from his employer.

Sen. Mike Lee is a turd.
What the heck is it that Mike Lee has got for getting work visas for Indians?
I take this as a good sign that non-Indians are melting the phone lines and this bill is suddenly in jeopardy.
BUMP
Lee really wants this bill passed to keep his promises to the tech titans who have rewarded him handsomely :( :/
Keep the calls coming.
I often call multiple offices...When they are busy, they are just keeping a count of pros and cons.
This is a turd of a bill...needs to be stopped!
I used to think he was pretty good but he sure turned out to be a sack of crap.
Oh look, another Republican slithering snake.
How common.
Each day my personal contempt of Deep State Mormons like Lee and Romney grows.
They hate America, President Trump and those of us who love America and voted for Trump to be our president.
Just another GOP backstabber. One of many unfortunately.
I am in IL...Have called Durbin...This morning lines were full...just taking messages on voicemail...So if Indians are calling, EVERYONE OPPOSE TO S386 SHOULD BE CALLING
SO FOLKS, CALL AWAY.
Washington, DC: p: 202.224.2152
Chicago, IL: p: 312.353.4952
Springfield, IL p: 217.492.4062
Big contributions from Tata and Infosys.
Oh look, another Republican slithering snake.
How common.

Too common. If Trump wins in 2020 I hope he starts a new party. I’m sick and tired of the backstabbers in the GOP.
What about those that voted for him? Are they as bad as he is??
... and an ugly turd at that.
Our nation is under siege from leftists and this is what the autistic Lee considers serious? What a mess we’re in.
I don’t think he went full turd until after he was reelected.
He went too far with being a NeverTrumper, because he wanted to have a rebellion at the RNC Convention in 2016. I don’t support him at all.
