: Greg Siskind's BlogSENATE DIPS TOE IN THE WATER TO MOVE IMMIGRATION MEASURES
By Greg Siskind
Yesterday, the Senate Appropriations Committee marked up a war spending bill and included a number of immigration provisions. The measures included
- a lighter version of AgJobs
- the restoration of the H-2B returning worker provision
- the recapture of unused employment green card numbers
- an early adjustment provision allowing people to file adjustment cases before employment green card numbers are available
- extension of the EB-5 investor visa program
- a new grant program relating to border security
Unfortunately, these provisions are likely to be removed because of Senate rules requiring amendments be germane to the underlying appropriations bill. If there is broad support for a provision, it might survive, but given the politics of immigration, I would not be too optimistic.
