Stephen Miller: H-1B visa bill won’t pass ‘anytime soon’
Fox Business ^ | October 2, 2019 | Catie Perry

Stephen Miller doesn’t think the new immigration bill addressing H-1B visas will be passed by the Senate “anytime soon.”

“The administration has made clear that our view on [H-1B visas] is that you cannot displace or replace American workers,” the White House senior policy adviser told FOX Business’ Lou Dobbs Tuesday. “And the president has taken unprecedented action in the immigration space to do exactly that, including most recently with the public charge regulation to keep newcomers from taking advantage of our welfare system.”

Senate bill 386, which is known as the “Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act of 2019,” would eliminate per-country caps for immigrants, and some reports say this will lead to an increased number of H1-B visas given to people coming from China and India.

If this holds, it is great news for American workers that Kamala Harris' and Mike Lee's sell-out is dead.

Mike Lee

Another name that I was lead to believe belonged to a good guy the past years.

Like Sessions. And others.

Maybe he faked it well for years.

Mike Lee outed himself when he teamed up with Kamala Harris. Is he planning to next switch parties?

So that’s why Mitch McConnell was making sounds like he couldn’t wait to take up impeachment when it gets to the Senate. He’s ticked off that the President won’t sign Mike Lee’s American Worker Replacement Bill. Guess the Chamber of Cronies won’t come through with their fat donations if they can’t hire a few hundred thousand more Indians and Chinese instead of Americans.

Great news! Stephen is the point man on immigration and he probably told his boss that signing that bill would not be a good idea.

About time f’in Trump started to begin stopping the H1-B madness.

If he does not stop this, he can wither and die from impeachment.

America First. Always.

Thanks Stephen for fighting this and standing with Americans and not the corrupt CofC crowd along with the corrupt Indian tech recruiters.

There is little if any IT industry diversity anymore. Pretty much the Indians run it now in most corporations.

Yes it is

I know little Dickie Durban is holding it up but I’ll take it for now

I keep hammering my Senator with the info that we are in a trade war with China who steals our intellectual property. We don’t need anymore of them in our country

Tariff all H1B Corporations.

This would lower the tax burden on working Americans who get replaced by untaxed foreigners.

Mike Lee was talking last week like his sellout is a “done deal.”
