Senate negotiators are moving behind-the-scenes to build support for the high-profile immigration bill they plan to unveil as soon as this week.
These efforts emerged as the group of eight senators are finalizing plans to roll out the comprehensive bill. They may unveil the plan as soon as Thursday or Friday, in advance of a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday.
The bill would have an enormous impact on businesses and documented and undocumented workers across the country, while attempting to attract low-wage and highly-skilled foreign workers and securing the southern border with Mexico.
Rubio, along with Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) are closing in on a deal that would raise the cap for the number of H-1B visas allowed for highly-skilled workers.
“It might be done even sooner,” Durbin said when asked if a bill would be released next week.
