We have known about these problems since the 1990s. but we have done nothing about them. It is time to change that. H.R. 3079 would extend the protections of the countrys immigration laws to the CNMI. using a balanced approach that takes into account the CNMIs vulnerable economy as well as past abuses. It would reign in the islands lax immigration policies while appropriately considering the labor needs of legitimate businesses. It would also provide for a regional visa waiver program along with Guam. which would provide both increased security and the tourists needed to help sustain the economies of both territories. This bill is strongly needed to break from the abuses of the past. It is backed by the Administration. and it has bipartisan support in the House and Senate.
