Biden seeks more foreign workers

  Biden seeks more foreign workers while skirting H-1B visa uproar Joe Biden’s immigration overhaul seeks to permit more skilled foreign workers into the U.S. without stirring widespread protest from labor groups, whose opposition would ruin prospects for what's already one among the president’s most precarious priorities. The sweeping proposal Biden sent to Congress on his first day in office drew quick Republican opposition over its centerpiece: a faster path to citizenship for 11 million undocumented immigrants within the U.S. Another provision would allow more foreign students and workers to enter the U.S. by increasing the amount of employment-based green cards. Business groups view the proposal as how to extend the availability of coders and other skilled tech workers for U.S. companies without raising caps on programs like the H-1B visa for high-skilled workers.

Mr. Biden made the comment in Milwaukee during a town hall-style meeting hosted by CNN. When the host, Anderson Cooper, asked him when every American who wants a vaccine was “going to be ready to get a vaccine?” Mr. Biden replied without hesitation: “By the top of July this year.” He then tempered the remark slightly, telling Mr. Cooper that the doses would “be available” by that time. But he also said he did not expect it to take months to get the shots into people’s arms. At a time when Americans are yearning to urge back to what life was like before the pandemic, Mr. Biden sought to supply...
