   The U.S. Chamber of Commerce:  Fighting for Your Business   
      
   Immigration   
      
   Throughout our history, the dreams and hard work of immigrants have been   
   a driving force behind America's success as a strong, prosperous nation.   
   We need the continued contributions of these immigrants to grow and   
   remain competitive.   
      
   For the 111th Congress, the Chamber will:   
      
        * Continue to push for comprehensive immigration reform that:   
   increases security; has an earned pathway to legalization for   
   undocumented workers already contributing to our economy, provided that   
   they are law-abiding and prepared to embrace the obligations and values   
   of our society; creates a carefully monitored guest or essential worker   
   program to fill the growing gaps in America's workforce recognizing   
   that, in some cases, permanent immigrants will be needed to fill these   
   gaps; and refrains from unduly burdening employers with worker   
   verification systems that are underfunded or unworkable.   
        * Urge Congress and the administration to address delays, backlogs,   
   and disruptions in our immigration and border management systems that   
   impede the movement of legitimate cargo and travelers across U.S. borders.   
        * Ensure the continuity and expansion of H-1B, L-1, and EB visas   
   for professionals and highly valued workers.   
        * Lobby for reform to enable seasonal and small businesses to   
   continue to use the H-2B temporary visa.
