I talked to my Pharmacist a little over a week ago. Found out he’s from India and is working here on a ‘working visa’. I asked him what that was because I never heard of it. I thought you either had to have a ‘green card’ or be a citizen. He said instead of a ‘green card’ they would only give him a ‘working visa’ and it was only good for a year. He’s been here 10 years and has to re-apply every year. His entire family is in India. If there’s a family emergency he cannot go home cause he wouldn’t be able to get back into the country. Now comes the best part of the story.

He was educated here and paid triple tuition as a foreign student. He owns the pharmacy and is part owner of another one. He employs 20 Americans and he works 7 days a week. Our government, ya know the ones that will bend over backwards for the rights of illegals will not grant him a green card which is a requirement to become a citizen.

I was furious when he told me his story and I immediately contacted my congressman. My congressman immediately followed up with a letter and has offered to help. His name is Bill Posey, a Republican of course. When the dust settles I will post the results.
