The recent attention in the media to the pressing issue of #DocumentedDreamers gives us an opportunity to take a bigger view of immigration issues. The issue of kids aging-out is an unintended though not unforeseeable consequence of massive #GCBacklogs.🧵 👇 1/9
Fundamentally, this is a demand-supply and allocation issue. The number of #GC annually given out has not changed meaningfully since 1990. Meanwhile the US economy and labor market today are completely different from back then. 2/9
On top of this supply issue of #GC is the fact that their allocation is not equitable. How long you wait in line, usually boils down to the country you were born in. Not on skills, education, work experience, duration of stay in the US or contribution to the economy. 3/9
Arguments linking per-country caps to maintaining diversity in America are used repeatedly. They came up yet again during the house judiciary committee hearing on 04/28, so we wanted to take some time to address it. 1/12
The thing being considered right now, is the removal of per-country caps in EB immigration. The caps apply to immigrants in this category who are ALREADY in the US and have been awaiting their turn for a green card for years! 2/12
Eliminating these per-country caps wouldn't let in any more EB immigrants into the US annually than right now. It would just make it make everyone stand in the SAME LINE for them, irrespective of their country of birth. 3/12
In 5 minutes of testimony, @David_J_Bier has managed to not just illustrate the serious gaps in legal immigration policy, but also address why things stand the way they do.

Excerpt about employer-based Green Card path from his testimony on “Why Don’t They Just Get in Line?” 🧵👇
Employers may sponsor their employees, but their employees have a hard annual numerical limit of 130,000 green cards—half of which go to the spouses and minor children of the workers. This limit was last updated in 1990.
Immigrants from a single birthplace can obtain no more than 7 percent of the green cards in a single year unless they would otherwise not be used.

1. #H1B enacted 1990, slight dip in #LaborParticipationRate; 1998's ACIWA raises #H1Bvisas to 115,000 - LBR dips again;
2001 AC21 Act raises #H1Bvisa limit to 195,000 - LBR continues dropping @USCongress @BizRoundtable @USDOL.

Would @SenSanders continue his #H1B opposition as Secretary Of Labor? Or will he conform to @JoeBiden/@KamalaHarris' anti-#AmericanWorkers/pro-#H1Bvisa platform?

2015: @SenSanders 'wants to reform the #H1B program, in part, by "substantially" raising prevailing wages.'
Does @BernieSanders now support current @USDOL/@DHSgov #H1Bvisa #wages Interim Final Rule?

Immigrants are an essential part of the United States’ workforce, filling critical labor gaps and contributing specialized skills.
Immigrants are also job-creators, starting businesses at nearly twice the rate of native-born Americans and employing nearly 9 million Americans.

FWD.us President @TheToddSchulte issued the following statement today on the extension and expansion of President Trump’s executive order dramatically limiting immigration: fwd.us/news/fwd-us-st… #H1B #H1BVisa
“On the heels of a major loss at the Supreme Court – which sided with the overwhelming majority of the American public to reject President Trump’s efforts to deport #DACA recipients – President Trump is once again attempting to shift blame to immigrants..." — @TheToddSchulte
"...to distract from his terrible failure to handle the #COVID19 crisis. Massive restrictions to legal immigration – including restricting immigrants who contribute to medicine, science, and research in the United States..." @TheToddSchulte #H1B #H1BVisa
I am an International Medical Graduate #IMG. This week @AmerMedicalAssn recognized #IMGweek to thank the 23% of US physicians who went to medical school outside the US. But we are not all the same, our struggles and advantages are different. Follow along to learn more 1/
In general there are two main types of IMGs: US-IMGs and Non-US-IMGs. The former are US citizens who went to medical school outside the US, typically in the Caribbean such at @AU_Antigua, @StGeorgesU, @aucmed amongst others, but the could also go elsewhere such as Ireland 2/
Non-USIMGs have are doctors who are not US citizens who went to medical school outside the US. They may have trained at a medical school in their home country or have attended one of the schools the USIMGs attended, however they need visa sponsorship to practice in the US 3/
