Subject: HR 2106 - Partner with Korea Act

Hi Rachel and Nathan:

I apologize for the abrtipt email at the end of a very busy week, but I wanted to reach out to you and
Congresswoman Lujan#Grisham behalf of our client, the Republic of Korea;
l?d like to request a staff meeting with you and/or the appropriate colleague to discuss HR 2106, The
Partner with Korea Act. In 2017, Reps. Connolly and Roskam re-ivntroduced the bipartisan bill and we
now have more than 65 cosponsors. This legislation would provide an allocation of 15,000 professional
- visas to Korean nationals to work in the?United States. Other US Free Trade Agreement partnersalready
enjoy this status with our country and we believe it is an important continuation of KORUS to extend
this next bene?t to our close economic and military ally. We are hoping to build substantial bipartisan
backing for the provision to demonstrate broad support for future inclusion 1n any immigration or visa
reform packages that may be moving through the House this congress

We are grateful for your boss? commitment. and understanding of our important bilateral relationship
with Korea, Please let me. know ifyou have any questions on this request and when might be a good
time to meet with diplomats frOm the Korean embassy. Thanks again and have a good weekend, Paul
