On the Motion to Table S.Amdt. 3969 to S. 2611 (Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006)

Voted against killing amendment to prevent guestworkers from getting greencards in 2006
Sen. ZZlastnameZZ voted against a motion to table the Kyl amdendment (SA 3969) to S. 2611. The Kyl amendment would have removed provisions allowing guestworkers admitted under S. 2611 to adjust status to that of lawful permanent resident on the basis of their status as a guestworker. This would have prevented 200,000 guestworkers a year from gaining greencards, resulting in 2 million less greencards over a decade. The motion to table the Kyl amendment passed by a vote of 58 to 35, effectively killing the amendment.
