This is all fine & good, but how’s about some tax cut action? Get the corporate rate down to 15% and do the 3 individual brackets at a 33% max... that is what we need to see.
Disgusting
AMERICA FIRST
That would severely hamper the H1B shops that work these guys 70 or more hours a week, and also any Americans that happen to stumble in there. People don't understand that this is severely cutting into the entry incentives for American STEM graduates.
I’m one of 4, soon to be 5 in MIS out in the factory in the woods.
I guess the new addition will be an American like the rest of us. Sometime in the next few days I’ll have a name and user account to create.
Hear, hear!
Kill H1B and send them all home. Best move ever!!!
All the gooberment needs to do is eliminate these visas & send the visa holders home on the first tramp steamer heading out of ‘Dodge.
But the Tech Billionaires need these to be Billionaires!
The H-1B count should be cut to ZERO.
No one needs them. NO one.
And then cut whatever transoceanic phone cable that connects us to India so that these people will stop offering to remove the "viruses" they just magically detected on my computer, or to lower my credit card rates (even though they couldn't tell me which of my cards they were calling about), or to present me with some awesome government grant from a vaguely-described agency.
American companies outsourced so many IT jobs to India, only to have those folks use their newfound skills to scam us endlessly, even learning how to spoof phone numbers so that they appear to be local. I'm so tired of that crap.
Try getting a job in a hospital. My daughter can only get part-time lab work due to Kenyans, ME and people from India. These are good jobs that being taken by H1Bs too.
You haven’t lived until you get calls from India regarding today’s “Urgent Requirement” for an IT position that pays minimum wage for a 3 month gig in Minot, North Dakota.
I’ve grown tired of being asked for my “visa status” for jobs within my own country. I’m also tired of having to interpret voicemail messages where the caller sounds like his mouth is stuffed full of martbles, offering the same job for the 150th time this month.
I’d be willing to visit the nearest Vedic Cultural Center to make an offering to Ganesh, just to get every last one of these jokers shipped home.
H1B guys at my Fortune 100 company, beside allowing the company to avoid paying a fair wage, find work that can be moved off-shore where workers are paid even less. This is going to be interesting to watch.
The visa has to be eliminated.
Any modification to the existing H1-B will have immigration attorneys looking for any possible way to exploit any unintended loopholes.
Yet another excellent reasons to cancel these foreign worker visas. They already abuse the program as it is.
Why “gun sights”? Going to shoot someone?
Write congress.
That is what they do, not something the President can do.
I worked with H-1B visa holders, they weren’t any better than anyone else that could’ve been hired off the street in most large cities.
And it degrades ST&E jobs suggesting that these are menial chores done by foreign workers while the valuable work is done by lawyers and MBAs.
