New Jersey urges Congress to add Ireland to the E-3 nonimmigrant visa program.
The resolution urges Congress to add Ireland to the E-3 nonimmigrant visa program, which currently allows highly skilled Australian nationals expedited entry to live and work in the United States. The E-3 visa program allocates 10,500 visas annually, but nearly half go unused. Adding Ireland to the program would help fill vacancies in the U.S. labor market, particularly in highly specialized occupations. The resolution highlights the historical contributions of Irish immigrants to the U.S. and the potential for reciprocal visa opportunities for American workers in Ireland.
