Senator wants answers to H-1B snarl

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is looking for answers from the Bush administration, and soon. Grassley wants to know what progress has been made to make administrative changes to ease the difficulty in getting H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers, including those skilled for technology jobs.

Last year, Grassley asked Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff to study and report on potential reforms for getting the highly sought work visas. Congress, though, has yet to receive word on any potential solutions.
