As early as tonight, the U.S. Senate will be voting on an omnibus spending bill that was put forth less than 36 hours ago. And its a weird kind of deja vu all over again.
Ok – so this time its not related to healthcare. But there is something just as serious, actually MORE serious to be found in this behemoth.

There are layers to this bill that should make us all sit up and say WAIT JUST A GOL DARN MINUTE!
Buried in the 2,000-page omnibus spending bill released by the Senate this morning is a secret provision that many senators hope unemployed blue-collar workers won’t find out about.
This provision would quadruple the number of H-2B visas for unskilled foreign “guest workers.” It would allow more than a quarter-of-a-million foreign workers to enter the U.S. each year and work in the construction industry, hotel-motel services, truck drivers, food processing, forestry and many other fields that don’t require a college education.
Ummm HELLO??!!! While all of you Senators, and yes that includes YOU Paul Ryan, were scurrying around behind closed doors putting this thing together, I have to ask one simple question. San Bernardino anyone??!! Bueller? Bueller?
