    H-2B Cap Exemption Introduced in Senate
    Tuesday, February 17, 2009, 10:29 AM


    Sens. Barbara Mikulski and Arlen Specter
    A bipartisan group of Senators have introduced S. 388, which would extend an exemption to the cap on H-2B workers for three years. The legislation was introduced by Sens. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) and Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) and has 24 cosponsors. H-2B visas are given to seasonal employees in non-agricultural related fields that experience high-peak times such as amusement parks and ski resorts.

    The Immigration and Nationality Act limits the number of aliens on H-2B visas in the United States to 66,000 per year, but the Save Our Small and Seasonal Business Act would exempt any H-2B visa holders from the previous three years from the cap.

    H-2B visa holders are also allowed to bring their spouse and any unmarried children in to the United States on an H-4 visa, but H-4 visa holders are not permitted to work.

    For more information on the bill, see S. 388 and our Proposed Bills Page.

    And don't forget they now qualify for free healthcare as soon as they can sign up all at the expense of us.

    Have these "lawmakers" lost their minds? Or is this just another push toward the New World Order? Throw them all out!

    This will put a lot of American citizens who need jobs into competition for work.

    Unfortunately all too often the H-4 legal non workers are actually working under the table. This is one of the places where the problem with counting is it just twelve million or as much as twenty million gets created. If you count the quasi legals non work eligible dependents, students etc. it is easily up to twenty million.
    I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

    Specter needs to go FAR FAR away, like to the deep recesses of Mexico, with NO water.

    I can't stand him.
    The flag flies at half-mast out of grief for the death of my beautiful, formerly-free America. May God have mercy on your souls.
