US Congress to vote on bill to remove country-cap on Green Card

The US House of Representative will vote on Tuesday on a legislation that seeks to lift the country-cap on issuing green cards.

Being supported by more than 310 lawmakers from both the Republican and the Democratic Party, the Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act is all set to sail through the 435-member House of Representatives.

Buoyed by the fact of 203 Democrats and 108 Republicans co-sponsoring the bill, the proponents of the legislation are using a fast-track process which requires 290 votes to pass a bill without hearing and amendments.
