Indian-American Congressman hails move to eliminate country quota for employment-based green card

Indian-American Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi hailed the legislative move to eliminate country quota for employment-based green card asserting that these reforms will help the U.S. retain top talent from across the world while ensuring growth of the economy. “As an original cosponsor of the Fairness For High-Skilled Immigrants Act, I am proud to announce that this immigration package has incorporated our bill’s fundamental reforms, including the elimination of country-based discrimination for employment-based green cards and the increasing of per-country caps on family-based green cards,” Mr. Krishnamoorthi said on February 19.
