The inclusion of an H-1b increase could impact/displace 50,000 American
programmers each year. But Kennedy did not extend an invitation to the
Programmers Guild to assist in drafting this legislation.
See below for the population impact that the Kennedy amnesty/guestworker
bill would have on the U.S. already we can barely import enough oil for
the 300 million here, and our freeways are over capacity – among many
other associated problems.

Kennedy Amnesty Bill Written by Chamber of Commerce, La Raza,
Immigration Lobby
Corporate lobbyists and special interest groups are helping Senator Edward
Kennedy write legislation that would give millions of illegal aliens
amnesty. The legislative work is being done in secret. Taxpayers who will
ultimately have to pay for that legislation for amnesty will not have a
voice. The Chamber of Commerce and groups like it have been allowed to
hijack a large part of the process and even write part of the legislation.
Senator Ted Kennedy and his staff have been quiet on the details of their
new immigration proposal. It’s by invitation only. Even moderate
Republicans like Senator Arlen Specter have not been offered a seat at the
table. But the Chamber of Commerce and other special interests are having
a hand in offering the legislation. One Republican Hill staffer
complained, “The Chamber has seen more than the senators when it comes to
the actual writing on paper.” Roy Beck of Numbers USA said:
“Senator Kennedy has been inviting the stakeholders of this bill to come
in. So that’s the Chamber of Commerce. And it’s the National Council of La
Raza, and it’s the immigration attorneys. Basically, the stakeholders are
people who make money or gain power off of it.
But how about the American people?”
