Manmy digital producer wajahat i ali,. Diverse nation, there is apathy, at least, about politics, congress, election and also about voting. Here is mikey, a loyal streamer, first of all you have to get americans to vote. Voter apathy , i love it when we get comments on google plus. Foreign policy isnt something i even consider. Considering both parties are so similar, ukraine, i. S. I. S, with whats happening i think this might change. Voters do tend to prioritize domestic issues, when deciding which candidate to put in office. But with International Crises galvanizing Public Opinion of late, should congressional candidates consider Foreign Policy . Maybe so. Especially mounting criticism against president obamas decisions overseas may hurt the Democratic Party come november. So how much does Foreign Policy matter in mid term elections and should recent events in places like iraq and ukraine be influential . Lisa and patrick. Following American Voter trends over the last 20 years. Than

Hard questions about how to fix the fundamental drivers of immigration as long as they funded more enforcement agents and build higher senses. This broke down in the 1990s because they immigrants began to increase and dispersed throughout the country instead of concentrated in border states, people began to view the numbers that were emerging as more of a problem, especially after the 9 11 attacks, the equilibrium broke down when immigration control was seen as a National Security issue. So since the late 90s and since 9 11 we have seen an additional security measures put at the border and in the u. S.

And because we dont really enforce employer sanction laws theyve gone around it and hired a lot of unauthorized workers instead. The h2b visa is for lowskilled nonagriculture workers in temporary jobs. The reason i dont consider it a fix and employers are willing to use that because it offers less protections than h2a to workers.

So if you want to hire a worker to work in your restaurant or your factory or, you know your Service Sector job as a janitor, none of those jobs are covered. It has to be a job that is timelimited and its limited to 65,000 visas a year. So it only covers it basically covers people in truly Seasonal Work l
