Rand "voted for it" by not objecting to the unanimous consent motion used by Mike Lee (R-India) to pass the bill without any committee hearings or discussions. Congress knows American workers would hate this bill if it got the proper hearing it deserves.
Rand Paul is NOT a libertarian. His father would go around making backroom deals like Rand did.
See my other comment hear to see what deal he made with Mike Lee (R-India). Libertarian leadership does not mean making deals to promote one group's interests over another.
If a bill is bad, why would you make a deal to help pass it. If a SINGLE senator had voiced an objection to the bill, it would not have passed. So why would Rand allow it to sail through? A few breadcrumbs for filipina nurses that want green cards? What a joke! You're giving Rand too much credit. Ron Paul did not compromise on his principles, even if it meant being called "Dr. No"
Purdue objected because he thought the agriculture lobby in his state would lose out on cheap, foreign labor. Once it was explained that this bill was for big tech and wouldn't affect the farm industry in his state, he dropped his objection.
Scott objected ostensibly because it would take away green cards from hispanic people in Florida. Don't know if he had any other reasons.
So no one in the US senate cares about Americans, you know, the people who they "represent". All of Congress should be voted out!
To appease the objections of Sen. Rand Paul and employers of foreign nurses, for the next seven years, 4,400 (3%) of available slots would be reserved for physical therapists and nurses coming from abroad and additional visas would be made available for their dependents.
And that's very interesting. If we had decent media outlets, then maybe somebody would ask him why he did it.

Breitbart's Neil Munro, who reports on immigration issues, covers the bill nearly every week.
