There isn’t unified opposition to skilled labor. Look at the purported nurse shortage: we’re going to import our way to wage stability.

You’re right on the first part, but you don’t need unification to stop something. We’re in the 11th or 12th speaker of the house vote because of ~20 folks.

You’re correct. But that preserves the status quo. Immigration doesn’t require reauthorisation.
