As senators pursue a bipartisan immigration deal, we urge them to address the green card backlog. Bills like #HWRA would address labor shortages in health care and improve access in underserved areas. @JohnCornyn @SenThomTillis @SenatorSinema @ChrisCoons

Alaska's governor requested health care reinforcements to support overwhelmed hospitals. #HWRA would enable doctors near and far to respond to these requests.
#HWRA strengthens our health care system and will save lives. @SenatorDurbin @lisamurkowski

#HWRA and #Conrad30 are overwhelmingly bipartisan bills that would help overworked healthcare workers and health systems as we fight #COVID19 and maintain basic hospital services in underserved areas.
Thank you @SenatorDurbin and @SenAmyKlobuchar!

Fight the pandemic #S3599

#S3599 will give 40k green cards to nurses and doctors who passed their training and exams to practice in the US. This will help deepen the health workforce bench. Props to @sendavidperdue @DickDurbin @ToddYoungIN @ChrisCoons for giving this bipartisan clout.

Dr. Abhinav Singh is a well-respected physician in Greenwood, IN who has been waiting 18 years for a green card. Let’s pass my Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act to keep great healthcare workers like Dr. Singh here in the U.S. fox59.com/news/angela-answer…

Thanks @anupamuab at the @ASNKidney for reminding us how critical specialists like nephrologists are in our fight versus #COVID. We need more solutions to strengthen the healthcare workforce and the #S3599 helps address this problem. @SenJohnThune #HWRA

Immigrant health care workers provide quality care throughout the country--particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic
We sent a letter to McConnell urging him to include the "Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act" in the upcoming COVID relief package

Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Utah & Washington will likely devote half of their ICU doctors to #COVID19 patients, leaving few staff to help other critically ill patients. We must pass #S3599. x.com/AFPhq/status/128775543…

The Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act would cut the red tape holding our healthcare workforce back by filling our hospitals with trained medical workers. We urge Congress to enact this bill. #HealthcareReimagined

Happy to report that another @SenatorCollins (R-ME), has signed on as a cosponsor of S.3599 which will accelerate green card processing for doctors and nurses. The bill has 18 Republicans and 19 Democrats cosponsoring. Hopefully it will be added to HEALS Act.

Thank you @SenatorLankford for supporting #S3599. This bill will strengthen access to care by providing reinforcements to Oklahoma hospitals in need.
The @OKMed supports the #HWRA because a strong healthy workforce is vital to our fight against #COVID19.
