Americans First Immigration Act protects American workers and values by replacing employment-based immigration with a points-based system.
The Americans First Immigration Act amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to establish a points-based immigrant visa program. It prohibits petitions for employment-based immigration filed after the enactment date. Employers must attest to recruiting U.S. workers and offering jobs to qualified U.S. workers before hiring immigrants. The Secretary of Homeland Security can investigate employers for noncompliance. Aliens seeking points-based immigrant status must submit petitions with required attestations and information.
