Bill information
Summary
A bill to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to eliminate the per-country numerical limitation for employment-based immigrants, to increase the per-country numerical limitation for family-sponsored immigrants, and for other purposes.
Plain-language summary
The EAGLE Act of 2023 proposes to change how the United States distributes green cards (permanent residence permits) to foreign workers and family members. Currently, US law limits how many green cards any single country can receive each year, creating long waiting lists for applicants from large countries like India and China. This bill would eliminate that per-country cap for employment-based green cards, allowing more foreign workers to immigrate based on job skills. It would also increase the per-country limit for family-sponsored immigrants. The bill was introduced in Congress and is currently being reviewed.
