What is the difference between an EB-2 and an EB-3 classification for a Green Card?

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that they will be honoring its dedicated workforce during Public Service Recognition Week, the week of May 1 through the 7th. Public Service Recognition Week recognizes and honors those serving our nation as federal, state, county, and local government employees. USCIS Director Ur M. Jaddou stated, “Today and every day, we recognize our dedicated workforce for their commitment and resiliency during challenging times and we thank them for their steadfast service to the nation. I’m proud of the tireless work the thousands of USCIS employees are doing to respond to humanitarian crises, break down barriers in the immigration system, increase access to eligible immigration benefits, promote efficiency and reduce our processing times, and welcome new citizens.”
