CONGRESS: Memorializes Congress to modify the H-2B temporary non-agricultural program to assist with labor workforce shortage in the state

This resolution asks Congress to adjust the H-2B visa program's annual cap to address labor shortages in Louisiana, primarily affecting businesses like seafood processors that rely on temporary nonagricultural workers. It highlights that Louisiana ranks 7th nationally in H-2B usage and that current visa limits (66,000 annually) are often exhausted early, hindering employers' ability to hire seasonal staff. The resolution requests Congress modify the cap to allow more temporary workers for seasonal or peak-demand roles, without changing existing policy but urging federal action.
