  1. I think it’s going to get worse with all the reconstruction that needs to be done in the South.Workers who can will probably want to head South to get in on what will surely be some very lucrative work.

  2. So, workers are needed but immigration reform to ensure an orderly process to vet and admit appropriate workers stalled due to congressional inaction directed by someone not in Congress.
    Apparently, an insignificant number of US citizens are available to fill the open constructions positions in Indiana. Perhaps seek to recruit workers from other states, but Indiana might be a hard sell. Maybe some at the border or some already with temporary status could fulfill the need, but one hopes they any who may become members of the workforce are not vilified by false claims from politicians and subsequently subject to ridicule, insults, and even death threats as occurred in Springfield, Ohio..

  3. It wasn’t Congressional inaction. There was lots of activity. All of it directed as kissing the ring (or whatever) of the Prophet of Perjury, who didn’t want to let Joe Biden have a win to take on the campaign trail.
    The bill just didn’t die…it was killed off by those who now complaing the loudest about the situation at the border.

    1. You’re absolutely right. I think I saw an article where they just got the green light to move forward with the project. I’ve also read where the taxes from that project was a key piece in helping finance a new soccer stadium. So it was a must have for the city to move forward with its dreams of landing and financing a new stadium
