As
many of you may be aware, NJLCA and
its Legislative Committee have been
continually monitoring and fighting
for proper H-2B Temporary Worker
Visa legislation. We have recently
been invited to a breakfast with New
Jersey Senators and have been asked
to give a presentation on the
effects of H-2B issue in New
Jersey. We are also planning a
Washington, DC fly-in on September
10th. They have asked
that we provide specific information
in the survey below. We ask that
you complete and return the
following survey by either
downloading the pdf and sending to
us via fax (201) 703-3776 or email (legislative@njlca.org),
or filling out the online survey
below, as soon as possible.
Although we understand that many of
you are busy working hard this
summer, we stress the importance
of this survey in regards to
this and the 2009 landscaping
season. H-2B is affecting many in
and outside of the Green Industry,
for those who use the program as
well as those who do not, and we
look to your feedback to be able to
give our legislators a complete
picture of how this labor crisis
affecting us. This survey will be
completely anonymous, therefore
please be honest and accurate.
Thank you for your time and we look
forward to your quick response, as
the future of our industry may
depend on it. If you do not use
H-2B employees, we can still use
your data; please complete the
survey and return it to us.
Sincerely,
