H.R. 3720: 

New IDEA Act

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:03 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would make wages and benefits paid to illegal aliens nondeductible for federal tax purposes. More specifically, it stipulates a retroactive six year limitation on assessment and collection, giving the IRS an incentive to collect due taxes. Furthermore, New IDEA makes E-Verify a permanent program, gives employers “safe harbor” when using E-Verify to confirm employment eligibility of their workers, and requires the IRS, Social Security Administration, and Department of Homeland Security to share information and work with each other on investigations.

S. 2005: 

IRE Act

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:03 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

S. 2005, the Irish Immigration Recognition and Encouragement Act, would expand the E-3 visa category to include up to 10,500 Irish nationals each year. As the Obama administration has a stated policy of waiving inadmissibility requirements for illegal aliens, and because this bill does not prevent the administration from doing so, this bill acts as a de facto amnesty for illegal Irish aliens in the United States.

S. 1983: 

Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:50 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

S. 1983, Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2011, would expand the E-3 visa category to include up to 10,500 Irish nationals each year and to amnesty the Irish nationals who have overstayed their visas.

S. 1965: 

Startup Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:52 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

S. 1965, the Startup Act of 2011, would create 50,000 new STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) visas for foreign students who graduate from a U.S. college with a master's degree or a Ph.D. The bill also creates a new visa program for 75,000 new immigrant "entrepreneurs" -- individuals who already hold an H-1B visa and would be allowed 3 extra years to remain in the U.S. and operate a new business.

S. 1856: 

A bill to prohibit Federal funding for lawsuits seeking to invalidate specific State laws that support the enforcement of Federal immigration laws.

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:47 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would prohibit federal funding from being used to challenge state laws that facilitate the enforcement of federal immigration laws including: the Oklahoma Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act of 2007; Missouri House Bill 390; Arizona’s Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act (SB 1070); Utah’s Illegal Immigration Enforcement Act; Indiana Senate Enrolled Act No. 590; the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act; South Carolina Act No. 69; Georgia’s Illegal Immigration Reform and Enforcement Act of 2011; and Indiana’s HB 1402.

H.R. 3160: 

Improving Methods to Promote Regular Occurrences of the Verification of Employability Status Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:09 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 3160, the Improving Methods to Promote Regular Occurrences of the Verification of Employability Status Act of 2011, would make the E-Verify program permanent, allow employers to verify existing employees after 14 days in the program, allow employers to wait for an individual's work eligibility verification before hiring them, and would impose sanctions on an employer who knowingly accepts a fraudulent document during the verification process.

H.R. 3146: 

American Innovation and Education Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:05 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Oppose

H.R. 3146, American Innovation and Education Act of 2011, would exempt aliens who earn a graduate degree in math, science, technology, or engineering at a United States institution from the numerical limitations on H-1B nonimmigrants. In addition, it would increase the numerical limitation per foreign state from 7 percent to 15 percent and make administrative changes to the STEM Education and Training Account, which collects application fees and distributes grants and scholarships to educational institutions.

H.R. 2885: 

Legal Workforce Act

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:10 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2885, the Legal Workforce Act, would replace the I-9 system by making E-Verify permanent and mandatory for all employees via a gradual phase-in process. Specifically, an employer with 10,000 or more employees has 6 months to become compliant after the bill's enactment, while employers with 500 to 10,000 employees have 12 months, employers with 20 to 500 employees have 18 months, employers with 1 to 20 employees have 24 months, and agriculture service employers have 36 months.

H.R. 2670: 

Jobs for Americans Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 4:11 pm EST

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

H.R. 2670, the Jobs for Americans Act, would authorize state and local governments to 'enact and enforce laws' within the limits of federal statute that help identify illegal aliens, deter illegal entry, apprehend illegal aliens, and reduce rewards that encourage illegal aliens to remain in the United States. In addition, this legislation would avert the federal preemption of state and local laws against individuals who knowingly employ, recruit, or refer (for a fee) an illegal alien for employment.

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.”
