Amen, no more cheap labor H1-B’s brought in to drive down wages and take American jobs.

Even worse than the H1B program IMHO is the F1 Student Visa program.

This allows stampedes of foreign students into the country. Basically anyone who can scrape-up the tuition to a struggling fly-by-night school gets in. The schools essentially have power to issue the visas delegated by the State Department.

Once they graduate the students then get a work visa for “practical training” (good for three years in some cases). Most of them get hired on the basis of incredibly fake resumes. Get a little time under their belt, find an H1B sponsor, start a green card, and most of them never go home.

Applicants for an H1B at least have to show up at the consulate and prove that they have some minimal qualifications. Not so for the F1, and the numbers obtaining them dwarf H1B’s.
