What this amendment would do

SA 5785, submitted by Mr. Schiff, aims to add a new section to an existing amendment (SA 5453) for bill S. 2.

The purpose of this amendment is to create an exception to a fee requirement. Specifically, it targets H-1B nonimmigrants who will be working as health care workers in the United States.

  • These specific health care workers will not have to pay the $100,000 fee otherwise required under section 1(a) of Presidential Proclamation 10973.
