Meet Your Next President!

Now, Vance has made clear that the Trump administration favors Americans driving the future of the economy, not foreign replacements.

The entire H1B program should be ended.

It’s a complete scam.

He’s right. It is rampant in the tech industry and it shows. Software they produce is junk. It is all about rush to market to be the first with some bells and whistles that do nothing but are cool for the kids to use.

So Vance is completely giving a pass to L1 Visas, which are worse? I know for a fact Microsoft uses.

H1b and school visas are largely a scam but if a company needs some special workers the federal government can charge them some money for the visas (around 50-100 k a year per visa)
If the workers are that great they will pay the fee

Yep!
It destroyed Intel.
All the best people were forced out, joined Apple or Nvidia.

Agreed!

End H1B now!

It’s counter productive to the goal and hurts Americans!

It’s a complete scam.

You have to read the statute to realize just how much of a scam it is: even if the gov proves the company fraudulently obtained an H1B visa, the visa cannot be revoked.

I read about a company in Dallas that got nailed for fraudulent H1B visas: the fine was $20K per offence, less than what they got paid for obtaining each fraudulent visa.

The whole statute was written by tech company lawyers and handed to some bribed Congressional factotum to submit as a "bill."

Microsoft up over $6.00 a share with Vance publicizing them firing Americans to bring in H-1Bs.

Wasn't Intel more of a DEI - white males not wanted?

Shouln't be complaining unless the H-1B policy doesn't actually bother you all that much.

Too bad that we don’t control the Executive Branch, Congress and Supreme Court to do something about our Visa system.
