A Chinese-American civic group is opposing Sen. Mike Lee’s push to accelerate the inflow of Indian graduates into voting booths, U.S. workplaces, and the Utah economy.

The professionals’ groups include Protect U.S. Workers, as well as White-Collar Workers of America, the American Workers Coalition, and Progressives for Immigration Reform, which raises funds at the U.S. Tech Workers site. The groups argue that Lee’s pro-Indian bill would encourage a huge new wave of Indian managers and workers to take U.S. jobs via the uncapped and wide-open Optional Practical Training program. [...]

There’s not a shortage of talent in this country; there’s a shortage of talent that’s willing to work for a quarter of the normal going rate for talent.
