US Senators Propose Bills to Reform Green Card and H-1B Visa Policies
US lawmakers have renewed efforts to reform immigration laws affecting millions of long-term residents, including Dreamers, TPS holders, and H-1B visa holders. Senator Alex Padilla reintroduced a bill to create a green card pathway for those living continuously in the US for at least seven years. Separately, Republican Senator Tim Sheehy proposed pausing new H-1B visas for three years to address concerns about program misuse. Both proposals remain bills and require further congressional approval before becoming law.
