They don't care. They are here and they are not going back. H-1B is a fraud that allows immigrants to come here on a "temporary" visa and immediately begin the legal process to obtain a green card for them and their families.

$8,300/month, because no one in America wants that job.

[realcleanguy]

This is how the Democrats promote more racism and Slavery. The Democrats have not changed from the Civil War. They are still Slavery Advocates

[HamiltonJay]

H1B is to skilled workers, what illegals are to unskilled... the entire program needs gone. There is no saving or fixing it.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

It’s nice to see the purveyors of all thst is good and right practicing slavery.

[gaijin]

” we bring them in because we can’t possibly find any Americans at all for these jobs”

that is a freaking lie.

what that really means is:

“we can’t find Americans to do this work in return for nothing at all”

liberal tech tycons hear about what Ag bosses can get away with out in the sweltering crop fields and they set about doing the same thing.

[Gay State Conservative]

There’s an apartment complex near me that has a lot of Indians on H-1B visas.Whenever I see them I remember that they’re here to deny an American a good paying job.

[a fool in paradise]

>>“Investigators found that the company paid impacted employees well below the wage levels required under the H-1B program based on job skill level,

FUinvestigators.

They should see what native born Americans with 20+ years of industry experience and a degree are drawing thanks to depressed wages from the H1B scam.

“well below wage levels based upon job skill level”

It’s a crock.

This has been going on for years. I am in the IT world and my first experience with this was around 1995. Indian companies put 8 men in a run down 2 bedroom apartment. Pay them 18,000 per year. Bill them out at rates sometimes in the hundreds per hour. Indians do it because they have to be sponsored, uninterrupted, for 4 years in order to get a green card. If they have to get a new sponsor, the clock resets to zero.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Just DemocRats being themselves. First they enslaved the blacks, then they kept them oppressed by making them sharecroppers and paying them less than whites, then they kept workers indebted to the company store, now they import workers from India and take most of their pay in “expenses”.

[JimRed]

Is there a “company store” involved? Does the company provide (and charge for) housing, etc.? That and CA taxes could explain the low net.

[Wuli]

The H-1B os fraud.

There is no shortage of STEM qualified people here. The H-1B is used merely to bring in the individuals the company here has already determined they personally want. The idea that they had been looking for persons with certain qualifications before they went abroad to get the workers is usually at least a fabrication if not an outright lie. The persons overseas are already known to them and they have no desire to look for equally qualified persons here. And with the H-1B they have a legal out not to.

[\/\/ayne]

One great result of President Trump's election is fewer RINOs ardently supporting H1B. We must continue to call out RINO support of H1B scam!

I'd like to see a requirement for every H1B worker's diploma and work history in their country of origin to be verified by an independent agency. Otherwise I will continue to doubt every H1B college degree.

I watched most of the interview with Mark Zuckerberg. NOT ONE committee member, across the political spectrum, asked him about using H1B workers instead of qualified US citizens to fill jobs. It should've come up, since Zuckerberg used as an excuse for FB's bad decisions was that his San Francisco-based reviewers weren't completely in tune with US expectations in freedom of speech and what is or is not hate speech.

The only persons who brought the issue up are Diamond and Silk in their very hilarious hearing.

[semaj]

I have an extensive IT background (BS paper) but work in avionics instead. can’t afford to live $13.00 an hour.

[null and void]

No kidding? I was replaced by THREE H-1Bs.

[CodeToad]

Kick out ALL the H-1B foreigners! We don’t need a single one of them.

[TheNext]

Oops.
The H1-B job application mentioned ‘high slavery’, not ‘high salary’.

[NonValueAdded]

Sounds like they brought them in for OPT under their F visas then hired them on after obtaining H1B visas. Not an unheard of practice.

[fishtank]

The H1B - Kaku's favorite weapon

[DownInFlames]

And the US worker they replace has their lives shatttered. I’ve gone through this twice and said goodbye to IT in 2003.
