11/11/2011: Bill to Eliminate Diversity Immigration on the Move
This bill, which was sponsored by Rep. Bob Goodlatte of Virginia on February
15, 2011 with 43 co-sponsors with the title of "SAFE for America Act" H.R.
704 was ordered yesterday, 11/10/2011, to place on the House floor calendar.
The motive and background for this bill are related to the alleged fraud-
ridden history of this immigration program. This bill may face some
resistance when it reaches the Senate because of its potential impact on
certain ethnic groups that form majority of applicants for this immigration
program, particularly Irish that have been enjoying special numbers of this
program. Since at least potential 50,000 immigration aspirants are at stake
from countries other than those that have been sending in most of immigrants
to this country, it may stir up some political controversity along the way.
The other point to note relating to this bill is another pending bill in the
House which was introduced by Rep. Isaa of California that also proposed to
eliminate the diversity immigration program, but unlike Rep. Goodlatte's
bill, his bill was proposing to give the immigration numbers (50,000) to
STEM employment-based immigrants. It is thus interesting how the sponsors of
these two bills can reconcile during the House floor debate. Please stay
tuned to this website for development of this immigration legislation.
