Businesses’ push for guest worker plan faces resistance
Jim Snyder
Businesses are scrambling to convince lawmakers to expand temporary-worker programs, but they are running into a strong political headwind.
High-tech companies, nursing groups, hotel resort owners and others are worried they could face labor shortages next year unless Congress acts. Lawmakers, lobbyists say, have been reluctant to move forward on the issue, however, in part due to the lingering fallout over last summer’s contentious debate on the comprehensive immigration reform bill.

These H-2B visas are so coveted because they pay these people next to nothing compared to American workers!
Once the H-2B worker demands more money or moves to a better paying job, the business needs MORE cheap labor. More money for stockholders and business owners. Higher taxes paid for entitlement programs these workers may end up needing. More unemployed Americans or less pay for Americans.
STOP ANY more worker visas from being given out! Fill those jobs with Americans and pay them a living wage!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Hellmann said as much as $500 million in new money could come from these visa programs, which could help lawmakers close the gap between their budget estimates and those of President Bush.
These lobbist are getting way to greedy for cheap labor, NO MORE H1B's or H2B's kick them off of capitol hill, I can not even imagine what the halls of congress are like anymore,Please support ALIPAC's fight to save American Jobs & Lives from illegal immigration by joining our free Activists E-Mail Alerts (CLICK HERE)
