Eight U.S. senators now pushing the new Immigration Bill. |
Four left-wing Democrat senators and
four right-wing Republican senators from the 100-members U.S. Senate have
written behind-closed-doors a massive 867-page bi-partisan bill popularly known
as The Immigration Bill and now been
pushing it through the Senate and later the House of Representatives.
Charles Schumer (D-New York), Dick
Durbin (D-Illinois), Robert Menendez
(D-New Jersey), Michael Bennet (D-Colorado), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), John
McCain (R-Arizona), Lindsey Graham
(R-South Carolina), and Jeff Flake (R-Arizona) are the 8-men group of leading
US senators trying to rewrite the U.S. Immigration law for the very first time
since 1986.
Their Immigration Bill is now going
slowly through the Senate since June-11 and expected to pass with a few
amendments added by other senators if 70 senators vote for the bill. If the
House votes for it later this year it will become law once President Obama
signs the bill which is basically a
general amnesty for at least 20 million illegal immigrants mainly the
Latinos from South America.
According to the Department of Homeland security there are at least
300,000 illegal immigrants from Burma in the United States right now and they
will also be granted legal status (Green Cards) soon and later the coveted
American citizenship. So now is the time for my countrymen to get to U.S. ASAP
by boat or by plane or by car or by foot.
Followings are four main building
blocks of the said Immigration Bill (2013 or 2014) now slowly travelling through
the United States Congress.
A Pathway to Citizenship
Charles Schumer (D-New York) the leader of the Gang-of- eight and the prospective leader of U.S. Senate. |
Some 20 million undocumented immigrants
who entered the U.S. before 2012 will be able to apply for registered provisional immigrant status which is the essential
component (General Amnesty) of the bill for the Democrats.
After 10 years they will be eligible to
apply for permanent residence (Green Card). And after 13 years they will be
eligible for citizenship (American Passport).
The illegal immigrants who entered U.S. as a child and now are under 20 years of age will be eligible for permanent residence (Green Card) in 5 years and citizenship immediately thereafter.
Border Security

That border security portion of the
bill is totally ludicrous as the US-Mexican border is notoriously so porous they
will never be able to seal-off practically. But the Democrats who need votes
from sympathetic Latinos are using that Border Security honey to rope in the
Republicans as most of them are suspicious of Democrats’ General Amnesty to the
illegal immigrants in U.S.
Workplace Enforcement
This part of the bill is supposedly to
punish future illegal immigrants as the deterrents against the illegal entries
in future. The bill requires all employees to verify the identity and certify
the eligibility of their workers within five years, and punishes companies that
do not comply.
They must be kidding or dreaming as the US economy will suffer without cheap labour from Latin America and the US companies will never stop employing them illegal Latinos.

VISAs for High-Tech Workers
To get the support from big businesses
mainly the High-Tech companies from the Silicon Valley the bill also eases
existing restrictions for U.S. companies seeking to hire foreign high-skilled
technical workers. At least a million supposedly High-Tech workers and their
families per year will be granted immigrant visas.
VISAs for Low-Tech Workers
Marco Rubio (R-Florida) the prospective Republican presidential candidate for 2016 elections. |
This is the honey trap for the 42-strong
Black Caucus of the U.S. Congress as they are afraid that the black immigration
from Africa and Caribbean will be negatively affected by the VISA increases for
High-Tech workers most of them probably will be from India and China as there
are not too many IT experts in that black-parts of the world.
So the Democrats and the Big Business
and the powerful labour unions agreed to create a new VISA for low-skilled
workers, known as the W visa, which will eventually allow 200,000 mostly Black
immigrants per year to enter the U.S. and expand the Black voters base substantially for the Black Caucus.
Once-in-a-lifetime Opportunity for Burmese
This Immigration Bill basically is a
general amnesty for more than 20 million illegal immigrants now in the United
States, and every illegal from any country including our Burma will be
benefitted greatly once the Bill is passed.
According to the Department of Homeland security there are at least
300,000 illegal immigrants from Burma in the United States right now and they
will also be granted legal status (Green Cards) soon and later the coveted
American citizenship. So now is the time for my countrymen to get to U.S. ASAP
by boat or by plane or by car or by foot. This is the once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for any Burmese with a dream of becoming American citizen.
