USIBC Steps Up Campaign on Immigration Reform
Washington: The US India Business Council (USIBC) has stepped up its campaign to address the concerns of the IT industry over certain provisions of the comprehensive immigration reform, which has now entered a crucial phase.
The council had recently established a ‘Coalition for Jobs and Growth’ to support the Obama administration’s immigration reform.
“While USIBC and the Coalition for Jobs & Growth fully support comprehensive immigration reform in the United States, there are five key provisions in the Senate Bill that will significantly harm US companies’ ability to remain globally competitive, which will cost American jobs,” USIBC President Ron Somers told PTI.
“It is imperative for US and Indian Industry to pull together as never before to help educate the US Congress and the US Administration about why these provisions are discriminatory and how they will hurt American business, as well as our commercial relationship with India,” he said.
“These provisions need to be excised from any final Bill. The Coalition for Jobs & Growth will work tirelessly to ensure this responsible legislative outcome,” Somers said.
