Besides the recommendations in the NAFBPO report Congress should implement the following provisions to address the impacts of guest worker programs to unemployed Americans and level the playing field between American workers and foreigners:
Require an employer to demonstrate there is no qualified American citizen for a job before recruiting for or hiring a foreign worker.
Require all employers to use E-verify to document legal employment status (work visa, permanent resident status, citizenship).
Require the employer to pay state minimum wage and implement a means for verifying that this wage is being paid.
Require the employer to write a letter to the prospective foreign worker guaranteeing employment of a specified nature and stating the duration of the position prior to a work visa being issued.
Before a work visa is issued, require the foreign worker to guarantee funds for transportation of the worker back to his or her home country when the work assignment is complete and the visa expires.
Issue work visas to the foreign worker only, not his or her dependents. Fewer foreign workers will be interested in coming to the U.S. if they must leave their families behind in order to work here.
Require proof of U.S. citizenship to receive any social benefits that are paid for through federal or state taxes (e.g., Medicare, food stamps, WIC, Pell grants and subsidized loans, free school breakfast and lunch, and subsidized housing). Require proof of citizenship or legal resident status to obtain a drivers license.
Pass the Birthright Citizenship Act3, which clarifies that a person born on U.S. soil is only a citizen at birth if at least one parent owes allegiance to the United States. This will reduce the number of guest workers and illegal aliens who come here so they can have an anchor baby.

Thanks EXCH54FE.
But they don’t do what the politicians want.
Hell, if they're willing to go home and stay home most of us would be willing to cancel one of Obama's million dollar vacations and divide up the money for bus fair home...
