The employers lie about their needs. In Prince Georges County outside DC, 10% of their teachers came from the Philippines on H-1B visas. Why? Cheaper.
Thanks. I think I’ll write my senator (Sessions) about how the employees at Disney and Con Ed could be replaced by H1-Bs. That shouldn’t even be possible based on what the PR about the H1-B program tells us (only if no qualified American can be found).
