Grassley: Trump’s H-1B Executive Order Protects American Workers; Prioritizes Visas for Most-Qualified Applicants

WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, an author of legislation to reform the H-1B and L-1 skilled work visa programs, made the following statement regarding President Trump’s executive order to protect American workers and prioritize H-1B visas for the most-skilled applicants:

The Quad Cities Astronomical Society, in partnership with Bettendorf High School, will hold a solar viewing event at the high school on Saturday, April 29, from 2 to 6 p.m.  The event is free and open to the public.

During the event, members of the Quad Cities Astronomical Society will set up telescopes that provide safe viewing of the sun near the school’s main entrance on Middle Road.

Why will you see so many volunteers driving around the Quad-Cities delivering sandwiches on Thursday?

It’s all part of the twelfth annual “Safer Sacks” initiative by The Safer Foundation. Participating businesses and organizations have ordered sandwich lunches that volunteers will deliver to workplaces or diners will pick up for carry-out.
