Seyfarth Synopsis: This is the

Administration on immigration reform previously published by the
Cato Institute in "Deregulating Legal Immigration: A Blueprint
for Agency Action." A total of five installments will be
published on a weekly basis. Please stay tuned for additional

Eliminate Bars to Entrepreneurship
The Department of Labor (DOL) should affirm that an
owner of a company is legally distinct from the company itself
and should define entrepreneurship as a Schedule
A occupation not needing a labor certification. USCIS
should rescind its currently enjoined H-1B interim final rule,
which restricts
self‐sponsorship by owners,
and the Justice Department should stop defending it.1
