H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

Another one. Good for you.

I notice it is on the same issue. This issue appears to hold particular significance with you.

Well i'm with you on this one.

"What can be done to stop this?"

Remove Obama.

This is the only thing that can be done and should have been done a long time ago.

I like Ted Cruz and Sessions but this "bill" is hogwash. Do they think that Obama would sign a bill that is designed to stop Obama? Or are they pretending it could pass as a veto proof bill, which is utterly delusional?

I like both these guys but they both know their bill has zero chance of stopping Obama. They are doing this for publicity and nothing more.

If they really wanted to save America they would be on TV saying Obama is deliberately trying to harm the US by importing foreigners from all corners of the globe to overwhelm and dilute the American culture into non existence. For this he must be removed.

Why wasn’t there a filibuster on the omnibus budget to remove the additional immigration spending? It seems like that would’ve been a shutdown that the public would have stood behind.

Even though they voted no on the bill, much more could’ve been done at the time instead of giving up to go home for Christmas.

Politicians.

The GOP/DNC political hacks, along with all of their crony wall st. free traitor backers are all just salivating over the prospect of a new supply of dirt cheap white collar labor.

Yep. Cruz and / or Trump should make this the focus of MANY campaign ads.

This won't be covered by the msm.

Blue and white collar democrats are being hurt by this too.

soetoro plans on doing as much damage as possible to America and the middle class as possible in the next year.

You sound like Boehner and McConnell.

"Publicizing" the issue even when you know that you won't win this round, is a good thing!

Sessions is doing all he can do. He gets some help from Cruz, Lee and a few others. Sessions has been fighting this battle for years, mostly alone. I’d like to see him as majority leader with Cruz or Trump as president. Then the needs of the American people would be at the top of the list, not special interests.

"Secondly, I believe we should expand legal immigration, reduce the barriers, reduce the waiting periods and I've introduced two amendments to significantly expand legal immigration, to double the caps on legal immigration from 675,000 to 1.3 million and to increase temporary high skilled workers by 500%. " - U. S. Senator Ted Cruz, August 8, 2013

What changed? Oh now he wants to be president.

Window dressing from a couple of known frauds

Cruz and Sessions both have admitted to lying about their intent on a bill.

How do we know they aren't lying now?

Just as important, how do other members that they need to support their bill know they can be trusted, Cruz has even bad-mouthed some members of Congress he may need now.

In 2013, Sen. Cruz proposed amendments to the "Gang of 8" bill that would strengthen border security, expand green card opportunities, increase high-skilled "H1B" visas, prevent illegal aliens from receiving welfare benefits, and enforce the rule of law.
When Obama does it it's "sabotage of skilled American workers"...When Cruz does it he proudly posts it on his official Senate website

Was he lying then or is he lying now?

I am sure that both Cruz and Sessions believe in their bill. The point is that once the Omnibus was passed the game is over for the rest of the Obama Administration. This is why we need Donald Trump to teach Ted Cruz how to really get things done.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's a news flash. We have not won ANY round and never will when our response to unconstitutional and deliberate violations of oath of office is to propose legislation that would have to be agreed to by the very people doing the violating.

No I'm not at all like Boehner, McConell, Trey Gowdy, Darrel Issa.

All these guys have been "publicizing" the wrongdoings of this administration for years but have actually done exactly squat to stop it.

Results are the only thing that matter and the end result has been the Democrats advancing the left agenda absolutely unopposed

Introducing and debating a bill is a good way to get on TV.

By professing support for the provisions of amendments really intended as poison pills? So what?

How do we know they aren't lying now?

It's a bill - what would it be poisoning?

The H-1B visa quotas need to set to zero. Neither party can be trusted with this wage lowering scam. To Republicans it is like crystal meth.

H-1B Kill it!

This issue appears to hold particular significance with you.

As a tech worker, it's a feeding-my-family issue for me (as it is for many other FReepers and Americans generally).

Well i'm with you on this one.

Glad to hear it! (Want to be on my H-1B ping list?)
