Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is drawing more criticism for bashing President Trump’s decision to suspend certain visa programs until at least 2021.
The executive order will suspend H-1B visas, H-2B visas, and certain other visas. The order makes some exceptions for workers who are deemed to be essential to the U.S. economy or national interest as well as the spouse or child of a U.S. citizen.
The order is meant to be part of President Trump’s promise to put American workers first.
“The President is taking decisive action to put American families and workers first in the reopening of the economy and DHS is proudly partnering with him to implement this important executive action..American citizens must be first in line for American jobs.”
Graham says he thinks it's a dangerous move and will have the opposite effect on our economy.
“This decision, in my view, will have a chilling effect on our economic recovery at a time we should be doing all we can to restore the economy.”
President Trump will also extend the moratorium on immigration, a move that is overwhelmingly supported by Americans.
As part of the Trump administration's promise to put American workers and families first, they argue that suspending the mass hiring of foreign workers will put Americans first in line, for jobs, as the economy is reopening from the months long shutdown related to the coronavirus.
Graham has drawn criticism in a few key areas of disagreement with President Trump and his supporters, lately. Graham has long said he was going to subpoena top officials in the Spygate scandal but has taken little action to date.
F.U.L.G.! First in!
Yep, with 40 million unemployed Americans, how will we ever fill those job openings?
Someone educate Linda Graham on how illegals and H1/H2 visas hace a negative economic impact via wage tax evasion/less tax through payroll etc?
Yeah, Linda. God forbid that some American Citizens get some jobs.
I am sick of Graham. I am sick of Romney. I am sick of the republican party that can not or will not stand behind the president and stand behind us.
Democrats win because they stand together.
Graham’s biggest mistake is thinking we give a rat’s @$$ what his “view” is. O ANYTHING anymore. He’s clutched his pearls too many times.
A lot of pissed off Indian H1Bs and Indians in India are making threats and promises that they will be using tech and hacking to defeat Trump. Its all over Reddit and Twitter. Immigrant Voice,especially. They are all extremely upset that Trump stopped the Indian Jobs Express.
Bad news: He did it so he could shoot us in the face.
Linda must be taking a lot of special interest heat from Silicon Valley. Trucking traitor!
Oh sure. Joe Birdbrain will defend India from Chinese aggression. If they’re so good at hacking why don’t they hack the PLA?
Yep, with 40 million unemployed Americans, how will we ever fill those job openings?

Thanks for that info. I don’t go to those sites.
With all the bewildering changes in health, politics, economics, and social norms, it’s good to see there is one cornerstone of the Republic that will always survive — Republican voters are stupid! They have yet again given the primary victory to the biggest GOP-e cuck of all, Lindsay Graham.
Well one to the party, Pal.
Mr. Graham, you mean we don’t have programmers here in America that we have to get them from India? We have people willing to work, you moron. If we have an unemployment rate of 0%, then I might say okay let’s bring in 10 people a year 10 people who are EDUCATED...
Well one> wellcome
This A-hole Lindsey Graham handily won his primary recently. WTF?
Is there really no unemployment in South Carolina that they need to import workers? Or are those voters particularly stupid?
Well one> wellcome > welcome

You should read how the Indians are absolutely going crazy over this, always professing their vast superiority over, as they say, stupid uneducated American trash.
Going as far as threatening Trump. Although I dislike Dick Durbin, Indians already are running a hate campaign against him, as he single-handedly stopped S.386 (the Indian Invasion Bill) from being passed through Unanimous Consent in the Senate.
Glad the USCIS is requiring social media credentials of foriegners.
