The Senate passed S. 1606 to amend the Public Health Service Act to improve the health of individuals who are members of minority groups and who are from disadvantaged backgrounds. The Senate passed H.R. 3259 to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to provide for adjustment of status, without regard to numerical limitation, for certain H-1 non-immmigrant nurses and to establish conditions for the admission, during a 5-year period, of nurses as temporary workers. The Senate agreed to the conference report on H.R. 2712 to facilitate the adjustment or change of status of Chinese nationals in the United States by waiving the 2-year foreign residence requirement for “J” non immigrants and by treating non immigrants, whose departure has been deferred by the Attorney General, as remaining in legal non-immigrant status for purposes of adjustment or change of status.
