America has an actual unemployment rate of 14%. We don't have enough work for our own people, why should we let foreign temporary workers take the few jobs their are. We are at 14% unemployment due to Democratic policies. How about we ship Democrats to Ireland and they can work there? It won't be long before you ship them out of Ireland.

We should all contact our US Senators now, and urge them to support this important bill.
