Should Indian spouses living in the US be allowed to work and pursue a career?
If you said yes, then you need to call your Congressman today!
100,000 Indian women, mostly Hindu, may be forced to stop working if the Trump Administration takes away their authorization to work.
Representatives Mia Love (R-UT) and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) are working to ensure this doesn't happen.
They are circulating a letter within Congress that urges the Department of Homeland Security to maintain the program that allows H-1B spouses to continue working and contributing to the US economy.
Call your Representative and ask them to sign this letter.
CLICK HERE to find out who your representative is and a simple script to help make your call.
If no one in the Representative’s office picks up the phone, please leave a voice message utilizing the call script.
Time is of the essence. Next month the Trump Administration is planning to issue notice that they are stopping the program. You can help prevent this.
CALL TODAY. The deadline is Wednesday, May 9th.
