Dear NumbersUSA activist,
The Senate is voting on hundreds of amendments today that if passed would be added to the 2016 Budget bill. A few of these amendments are directly related to immigration policy.
Hatch Amendments #1017 and #1025 would instruct Congress to increase the number of foreign tech workers. NumbersUSA opposesthis amendment.
America does not have a shortage of STEM workers. There are 11 million STEM grads not working in the field because they cannot find a job. STEM wages have been stagnant since 1999. Employers use tech visas in order to pay foreign workers less money than they would have to pay an American STEM worker. American STEM workers would be harmed if Congress increases the amount of foreign tech visas.
Grassley Amendment #958 would include worker protections before companies can petition for foreign tech workers. NumbersUSAsupports this amendment.
American workers deserve the first shot at every available job in the United States and they should not have to compete with foreign workers imported specifically to reduce wages.
Grassley Amendment #960 would mandate E-Verify. NumbersUSAsupports this amendment.
E-Verify is the most effective way to ensure a legal workforce while turning off the jobs magnet that encourages most illegal aliens to come to the U.S. in the first place.
Please ask your Senators on social media today to voteNO the Hatch Amendments and vote YES on the two Grassley amendments.
