Re: “As part of a poison-pill amendment in 2013. “

Too bad he forgot to mention the “poison-pill” part until 2015.

Full Disclosure:

I will vote for Cruz if he is nominated, but, in my opinion, he is - and always has been - a George W. Bush Republican on the immigration issue.

If your son is an American, it may be better for him to look outside Silicon Valley.

The reason you can’t hire enough good people is because you refuse to look at Americans in America.

AGREED. There are very few people from India who are overqualified. When there are way too many American applicants who are “overqualified”, and thus not offered the job, the problem lies with the employer’s attitude, not the American worker.

Re: “You best bet is one of the government labs...”

Or, perhaps not.

Universities, non-profit labs, and all government agencies are exempt from all H1-B quotas.

They are not even required to estimate the number of foreign workers on their payrolls.

The Center for Immigration Studies estimates that high skill foreign labor currently employed by American universities is 100,000!

The salaries here are going through the roof,

Define a "thru the roof" salary in silicone valley.

From https://www.tedcruz.org/cruz-immigration-plan/:

Amend the H-1B visa program to fulfill its original purpose: Work with Congress to pass reform legislation for the H-1B visa program that will:

• Create an advanced degree requirement: Only individuals with advanced degrees in their respective fields may be brought to the United States with an H-1B visa. And preference will be given to those with advanced degrees from American universities.
• Create a "layoff cool-off" period for all H-1B visa applications: Companies must wait one or two years between laying off a worker and bringing in any H-1B foreign workers to ensure that the program is not used to displace American workers.
• Establish accreditation or recognition requirements for overseas schools: The recent lack of federal oversight of the H-1B visa program has fueled a cottage industry of diploma mills. Foreign academic institutions must meet minimum accreditation standards at least as stringent as those imposed on American universities in order to qualify for the advanced-degree requirement.
• Require sworn affidavits describing domestic hiring efforts: Companies will provide sworn statements and documentation that detail their efforts to hire Americans before requesting foreign workers through the H-1B visa program. Individuals who make false statements in these affidavits will be subject to perjury charges.
• Suspend companies from H-1B visa eligibility for failure to help foreign workers obtain green cards: Many companies misuse the H-1B visa program to train foreign workers that they intend to send back overseas to compete with America. The law must impose additional requirements on employers to pursue Legal Permanent Resident status on behalf of their H-1B visa-based foreign workers, or risk loss of access to the program.

Since I’m very strongly opposed to all H1B visas or any policy that gives preferential treatment to outsiders in America, am I a candidate for the H1B Ping list?

I ask because in reality it wasn’t long ago that many brainwashed corporatist “conservatives” supported outsourcing USA jobs and insourcing all cheap labor.
