I think the bill is ok, but I oppose it because it is applied retroactively.Jul 26th, 2012Someone from San Diego, CA writes:

Dear Senator , I am writing to request your support to oppose passage of HR 3012 - The Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act. As you might be aware Senator Chuck Grassley has lifted his hold on this bill in the senate on July 11st, 2012. This bill if passed, would eliminate the per-country caps on the allocation of green cards in the employment based category. While it is certainly true that there is a large backlog in this category, the bill in its existing form only will allocate a disproportionately large number of green cards to two countries only and increase the wait times to receive green cards for nationals of all other countries such as Ireland, the U.K., Canada, Israel, Australia, all of Europe, and pretty much rest of the world. This bill would only benefit green card applicants who were born in India or China. While the bill is being drafted with fairness in mind, reducing the wait times for nationals of two countries and increasing it for all others does not sound like a fair bill at all. In addition, it might affect the ability of America to attract high skilled employees from America's neighbors such as Canada and other friendly countries such as the UK, Ireland, and Germany. Removing the backlog in the green cards process is a great idea and there are a few proposals which aim to address this issue such as Senator John Cornyn S. 3185 STAR Act of 2012, E3 visa bill for Irish nationals proposed by Senator Scott Brow, etc. A comprehensive immigration policy which addresses employment needs of America in the 21st century would be far more helpful than a proposal with a narrow focus of removing immigration backlog for nationals of two countries. I appreciate your cooperation in making the US immigration system fairer and more flexible to meet the workplace needs of America and to make this great country stay at the top of global business competitiveness.

I don't know what scam is being perpetrated here. Companies are bringing in semi literate "IT professionals" from India to do American jobs at Indian wages. Maybe it's time we boycott companies that import cheap Indian labor. These people have minimal IT skills. What happens to the rest of us Americans, do we have to seek jobs in the third world now that we seem to be working under Indian labor laws? The American people should not accept this nonsense. Outsource or insource labor and the consumers should be the cheap laborers from the third world.REPORT COMMENTS

Stop HR 3012. It benefits only India and China. Highly skilled ROW individuals already in the system will not benefit from this bill, rather it will increase their wait times. Also, I believe that this country is about diversity, which includes other skilled and highly educated individuals, not just India/China.REPORT COMMENTS
