International Era Visa Reform
With very strict immigration laws, it is very difficult to obtain a visa to work and live in the US even for professionals and college graduates. In an age of international communication and commerce, we should arrange to trade visas with countries that Americans also wish to emigrate to. For example: If Britain (or any country) and the US were to increase the number of visa/green card applications accepted from one another's citizens by an equal number, both sides would benefit, and tens of thousands of people would see their dream of living or working in another country come true.
This is what we ask:
-For countries that limit the number of Americans immigrating like Britain and other major european countries, form an agreement with that country to accept an equal number of increased green card or working visa applications in both directions every year.
The potential costs of this program are minimal, and will be offset by and eager and willing workforce including a large number of professional and college educated persons.
Please act on this petition as soon as possible. For an international community of 'united' nations, our current immigration system is unnecessarily restrictive and is long overdue for an update.
Thank you sincerely for your time.
