REF: DHS Docket No. USCIS-2008-0038 To Whom It May Concern, The reason we have foreign workers here in the CNMI is because we need them. That is not going to change; they take the jobs the local residents refuse to take. The idea that employers and foreign workers are exploiting the local workers is ridiculous. The employers have huge expenses; our utility bills have surcharges that are several times the original cost. Most supplies have to be shipped in which is expensive. Due to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services inability to come up with concrete options my employees are held captive and are afraid to leave the island. The USCIS/DHS needs to establish the CW-1 and CW-2 Visas without any complicated restrictions. Employers should not have to pay double fees for employees who were just renewed to convert to the CW-1 and CW-2 Visas. The Visas will need to stay in place decades not just a few years.
