Follow the Immigration Bill Markup Here
Today the Senate Judiciary continues its markup of S. 744, the Gang of 8 immigration proposal.
If you missed last week’s markup, check out our summary and a list of the good, bad and worst amendment’s.
This week, the committee will review amendments to Title 4 of the bill, which cover reforms to non-immigrant visas. This part of the bill governs the rules and requirements of work-based visa programs. We’ll be watching closely today as we work to continue building the momentum for comprehensive immigration reform that includes a roadmap to citizenship. Reform must include provisions that are good for American workers, keep families together, and guarantee labor rights for all.
Watch a live stream of the markup and be sure to join the conversation online.
We’ll be live-tweeting the event throughout the day. Tweet us your thoughts and comments using #UniteUSA with the widget below.
