CONGRESS: Memorializes the United States Congress to include expanding H-2B worker visas in its appropriations bill or other appropriate legislative instrument for Fiscal Year 2027

This bill asks the U.S. Congress to increase the number of H-2B work visas available for Fiscal Year 2027. It directly affects Louisiana employers who rely on these temporary visas for seasonal jobs in industries like crawfish processing and landscaping. The resolution requests that the federal government raise the annual limit on these visas or adjust the baseline allocation to help businesses meet their workforce needs. By doing so, the bill aims to prevent potential economic losses for local companies that currently struggle to hire enough workers due to existing caps.
