    How might adding Ireland to the E-3 program affect the availability of these visas for Australian citizens, given the visa cap reduction formula?

  2. 02

    What types of specialty occupations does the bill intend to prioritize for Irish workers, and how does this address specific labor shortages in the U.S.?

  3. 03

    What economic or labor market data supports the claim that the U.S. needs up to 10,500 Irish workers annually in specialized fields?
