On the Amendment S.Amdt. 4095 to S. 2611 (Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006)

Voted in favor of amendment to limit proposed guestworker program in 2006
Sen. ZZlastnameZZ voted in favor of the Dorgan Amendment (SA 4095) to S. 2611, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006. The Dorgan Amendment would have prohibited the issuance of new H-2C \"guestworker\" visas after five years, but authorized DHS to continue to extend the authorized stay of an H-2C alien after that date. This would have reduced the number of new guestworkers under S. 2611 from two million to one million (200,000 per year for five years instead of 10 years). The Dorgan Amendment failed by a vote of 48 to 49.
