Workers: H.R. 1758 (2007)

Grade Categories: 
Reduce Unnecessary Worker Visas
Incorrect Action Text: 
H.R. 1758 would increase the number of H-1B visas available annually by 65,000 for FY 2008-2012. The increase would apply to aliens who meet H-1B admission requirements and possess post-graduate degrees. H.R. 1758 contains a very mild worker protection by requiring employers of the visa holders to pay into a scholarship fund, with priority given to U.S. citizens and permanent residents.
