US Congress asked to update ‘woefully outdated’ immigration system
Washington, Aug 29 (PTI) The Biden administration has asked the Congress to update the woefully outdated immigration system, the White House said Monday.
“As we have said many times before, this is an outdated immigration system. We’ve asked the Congress to update our woefully outdated immigration system. We’ve been very clear on that, including, including the temporary visa programmes that haven’t been updated in more than two decades,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters at her daily news conference.
Under the current regulations, workers on certain temporary visas usually have 60 days to secure new employment, pursue a different visa classification or make preparations to depart the United States.
