The Trump administration is suspending Microsoft from a major immigration program that allows its foreign workers to transfer from an H1B1 visa to a green card, accusing the tech giant of fraud.
“If you do the math, for every worker that Microsoft laid off, they replaced that worker with one and a half foreign indentured servants,” Vice President Vance said Thursday at an event for his government fraud task force.
Critics of the H1B1 program — which permits workers with special skills legal employment in the US — say it is overused, allows cheaper foreign workers to replace American employees, and is rife with abuse.
Secretary of Labor Keith Sonderling added that some of the largest IT firms in the world would also be suspended from the Permanent Labor Certification (PERM) program, including Cognizant, Infosys, Tata, Wipro, HCL and Capgemini, as well as Adobe.
“We will not accept any new or process any pending permanent labor certification applications involving these companies,” the newly confirmed secretary said. “Since 2009, just these companies alone have requested almost 3 million foreign workers.”
Microsoft did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella will be with President Trump on Thursday afternoon when he is expected to be awarded the National Medal of Technology and Innovation.

Microsoft immediately issued this response:
माइक्रोसॉफ्ट कंपनी हमारी कंपनी और कर्मचारियों पर हुए इस बेबुनियाद हमले पर खेद जताती है। साथ ही, अब यह हमारा देश है। और हाँ, बिल गेट्स एक पीडोफाइल (बच्चों का यौन शोषण करने वाले) थे। हम अब यह बात मानने को तैयार हैं।

Long past due. I hope this action spreads to all other HIB1 users.
LOL

I voted for this.
I voted for this.
Now revoke all the H1B visas and give them 30 days to leave the country.

Well played!
LOLOL! If India had any NBA quality basketball players, I think Ballmer would sign them up for the Clippers.
A major part of the problem -> “Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella”

Leaving American workers in the lurch.
Good for President Trump - and I wouldn't trust anything Bill Gates touches...
I once worked in a msft building where I and one other person were the only native people.
there was a huge shift in the late 90s
in the 20 teens they shifted the helpdesk to India, those F@#%s would do nothing to help me, every time I had an issue they would do nothing and I finally realized I had to get one of my .Indian coworkers to talk with them if I wanted anything fixed.
Clever and it translated correctly as well.
Kind of says it all. Every US software tech stack is infested by Indians and every high tech hardware stack is infested by Chinese.
We have a business class and government colluding with foreigners to rob us blind.
translation: “Microsoft expresses regret over this baseless attack on our company and employees. At the same time, this is now our country. And yes, Bill Gates was a pedophile. We are now ready to admit this.”
Vance should have said that as far as immigrant workers are concerned, Microsoft is “untouchable”. LOL
Hilarious but sad!!!
And work backwards examining every previous naturalization, every previous green card, every previous spouse visa and ever previous chain migration based on the original H1-B visa being fraudulent.
Ship them all back.
Wonder what a liberal acquaintenance of ours thinks of this...he had to train his replacement (E Indian) @20 years ago before he was layed off at MSFT.
FINALLY!!!! If Rubio, Vance want to win the next presidential election they better step on the gas and push full force on this issue. Next up should be Cisco Sytems out of San Jose, CA. They are the worst and purposely firing, forcing out American citizens that are employees and replacing them with hordes of Indians. Either the GOP gets the job done or no reason to vote for them anymore. Just won’t vote at all.
