Tell New Jersey Sens. Frank Lautenberg and Bob Menendez:
Slow Down Massive Immigration to Save Jobs for Unemployed New Jersey Residents

Even as hundreds of thousands of New Jersey workers are struggling to find a job, Congress has continued to issue 125,000 new work visas a month to immigrants and other foreign workers. This equals 1.5 million new foreign workers each year, who compete directly with New Jersey residents for a very limited number of New Jersey's jobs.

Who benefits from allowing 1.5 million new foreign workers into the U.S. each year? Certainly not the 411,000 residents of New Jersey who are currently unemployed. Unfortunately, Sens. Lautenberg and Menendez have done nothing to reduce the number of foreign workers to the U.S. And as a result, unemployed New Jersey workers continue to suffer.

This continued failure to stand up for jobless New Jersey residents by Sens. Lautenberg and Menendez is inexcusable. Your fellow unemployed New Jersey workers need more opportunities. Please don't delay. Send the critical message below to New Jersey Sens. Lautenberg and Menendez today, urging them to reduce immigration to a more sensible level. This is a completely free service. There is no cost to you.
