@SenatorLeahy @USCIS Thanks Senator. As a legal immigrant who came here on a dependent visa, the H4 work permit was my channel to contribute to the US economy. Already equipped with a STEM undergrad degree, I went on to pursue an MBA at BU and graduated this yr with a job..CONT @SenatorLeahy @USCIS As luck would have it, my permit went for a renewal this year. I wasn't too worried, up until recently, when #USCIS decided to systemically delay all renewals. I had to forcefully quit my job 2 weeks ago, and resort back to my shackles..
