I140 EAD and AP last date: august 10 2016. Need Portable Work Authorization & Recapture 500K Green Cards.

Created by P.K. on July 20, 2016

On Nov 25th 2014, President Obama signed an executive action (https://goo.gl/wPP4K9) that would make it possible for the highly-skilled workers to obtain portable work authorization (I140 EAD and AP). Close to two years since then, there have been no updates on this action. Thousands of green cards are being wasted every year, with an estimated 500,000 green cards wasted so far, while the highly-skilled workers continue to wait in a queue that may take 20-50 years. We urge you to review and take necessary actions to recapture unused green cards, and provide portable work authorization. We want what American workers want x No H-1B worker increases and an equal opportunity to help us build our careers, innovate, and contribute towards the American economy.
