H-2B fly-in on November 13, 2019

On Wednesday, November 13, there will be a Capitol Hill fly-in to support the H-2B visa program. If you are available to join us, please contact John McMahon at 303 757-5611.

A copy of the H-2B Colorado delegation letter is now available. Some media coverage has resulted from the sending of this letter to the Appropriations Committee.

Finally, please make time to attend the luncheon with Rep. Neguse November 7 at noon at the Omni Interlocken in Broomfield. Here is the link for signup and registration. This fundraiser luncheon is an excellent opportunity for those using H-2B seasonal workers to further discuss H-2B cap relief further with the Representative.

ALCC will continue to update you on the H-2B program as the situation develops.
