Unanimous Consent Vote on Senate Substitute Amendment to H.R. 1044, Fairness
for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2019, Expected on September 19, 2019
On September 18, 2019, Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) proposed a substitute
amendment to S. 386, Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2019, which
amended the version passed by the House on July 10, 2019 (H.R. 1044).
Senator Lee will likely seek a unanimous consent vote on the floor of the
Senate tomorrow, September 19, 2019.
The substitute amendment uses the House version of the Fairness for High-
Skilled Immigrants Act of 2019 (H.R. 1044) as the basis of its amendment,
with a few key changes:
Includes a set-aside provision for no fewer than 5,000 visas for shortage
occupations, as defined in 20 C.F.R. 656.5(a), which would include nurses
and physical therapists, for Fiscal Years 2020-2028.
Retains the H-1B internet posting requirement proposed in the Grassley
Amendment to S. 386, with some change. Specifically, the H-1B internet
posting requirements will not apply to an H-1B nonimmigrant who has been
counted against the H-1B cap and is not eligible for a full 6-year period or
an H-1B nonimmigrant authorized for portability under INA 214(n). A summary
of the Grassley amendments are available for review.
Retains the “do no harm” provision for all EB petitions approved on the
date of enactment and the three-year transition period for EB-2 and EB-3
immigrants, but does not include EB-5 immigrants in the transition period.
If the vote on the Senate Amendment is successful tomorrow, H.R 1044, as
amended, would return to the House for consideration. AILA’s understanding
is that the Senate passed version of H.R. 1044 would be placed on the House
suspension calendar for consideration and final passage.
However, if the vote fails, the sponsors of H.R. 1044 in the House will seek
a “must pass” vehicle in which to include the provision. | f******g

我还以为5000是上限，原来是不少于5000个绿卡给护士。三哥折腾了10多年，菲律宾护
士成了最大赢家。 | E*****o
