To extend the admission to Guam or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands for certain nonimmigrant H-2B workers.

Summary

This bill extends a provision that removes numerical limits for visas for certain temporary nonagricultural workers working on Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands. Under this bill, the provision shall apply to qualifying H-2B visa holders who are admitted into Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands before December 31, 2029, whereas currently the provision applies to H-2B visa holders admitted before December 31, 2024.
