One tweet from Trump could kill this. But in the campaign he seemed to draw a distinction between low skilled workers crawling across the border and his skilled ones on H1B visas. He was adamantly opposed to the former, much less so for the latter. He’ll sit on the sidelines for this debate, I think.

To paraphrase Mark Levin the other day, what Mike Lee has been doing has been very troubling.

I earned my Masters in Information Systems. Over the last 25 years, I have been released twice while cheaper Indians were retained. Lord knows how many other job applications were ignored because I’m American. This chaps my A$$.

He is a dirtbag Mormon open borders slimeball following their cult positions which include open borders as long as people join and financially support the cult.

My thoughts exactly! This all comes down to who is paying him to act this way.

OK I found the information...Durbin is pushing for a hearing. Realize though that he wants more...bigger better bill. He is not opposed to expanding the foreign work force any more than he is opposed to open borders.

https://cis.org/Vaughan/Senate-S386-HR1044-S2603-Country-Cap

Update (10/31/19): Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) spoke on the Senate floor and expressed his desire for a future unanimous consent vote on S.386 and denied that hearings on the bill were necessary. Sen. Durbin (D-IL) has, in a letter to Sen. Cornyn (R-TX), requested a hearing on the bill and is currently blocking the unanimous consent request. A Sen. Cornyn spokesman suggested that Sen. Durbin end blocking of the bill.

It is not just Silicon Valley Tech Workers who are impacted...

Here is scary story of Accountants at Toys R Us from the article:

The scale of this U.S.-India Outsourcing Economy is huge.

But it is difficult to track because India’s workforce in the United States also moves many jobs back into India. For example, the New York Times reported how Toys “R” Us company used just eight Indian visa workers to outsource much of its 67-person computer department to India:

For four weeks this spring, a young woman from India on a temporary visa sat elbow to elbow with an American accountant in a snug cubicle at the headquarters of Toys “R” Us here. The woman, an employee of a giant outsourcing company in India hired by Toys “R” Us, studied and recorded the accountant’s every keystroke, taking screen shots of her computer and detailed notes on how she issued payments for toys sold in the company’s megastores.

“She just pulled up a chair in front of my computer,” said the accountant, 49, who had worked for the company for more than 15 years. “She shadowed me everywhere, even to the ladies’ room.”

By late June, eight workers from the outsourcing company, Tata Consultancy Services, or TCS, had produced intricate manuals for the jobs of 67 people, mainly in accounting. They then returned to India to train TCS workers to take over and perform those jobs there. The Toys “R” Us employees in New Jersey, many of whom had been at the company more than a decade, were laid off.

I suspect you might be right.
I believe that many of these visa and job
giveaway advocates are getting foreign
"contributions" to betray the American people.
