S. 1664: 

Immigration Control and Financial Responsibility Act of 1996

Published:  Wed, Jan 29th 2014 @ 10:43 am EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Orrin Hatch [R-UT] in the 104th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

An original bill to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to increase control over immigration to the United States by increasing border patrol and investigative personnel and detention facilities, improving the system used by employers to verify citizenship or work-authorized alien status, increasing penalties for alien smuggling and document fraud, and reforming asylum, exclusion, and deportation law and procedures; to reduce the use of welfare by aliens; and for other purposes.

H.R. 2202: 

Immigration Control and Financial Responsibility Act of 1996

Published:  Wed, Jan 29th 2014 @ 10:44 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Lamar Smith [R-TX21] in the 104th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2202, the Immigration in the National Interest Act of 1995, was a large omnibus bill designed to reform the entire immigration system. The legal immigration reforms it included were based on the bi-partisan Barbara Jordan Commission's recommendations for cutting the major links of family-chain migration and protecting American workers from further wage depression. The bill would have eliminated the categories for adult children and siblings and limited that for parents of adults.

Immigration Reduction Act of 1995

Published:  Wed, Jan 29th 2014 @ 10:45 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Bill Archer [R-TX7, 1971-2000] in the 104th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:

H.R. 1915: 

Immigration in the National Interest Act of 1995

Published:  Wed, Jan 29th 2014 @ 10:42 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Lamar Smith [R-TX21] in the 104th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 1915, the Immigration in the National Interest Act, would have shifted the primary focus of immigration policy to spouses and minor children from extended family and to skilled immigrants from less skilled ones. It would have set a ceiling of 330,000 on family-based immigration. In addition this bill would have increased the number of skilled workers, while eliminating the unskilled worker category and the lottery program. H.R. 1915 also contained provisions designed to reduce illegal immigration such as worker verification programs.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
