Great news here. This is why party politics, esp in our money-driven system don't mean much. You never know who's acting in your best-interests. H1B visas exploit foreigners with lower than market rates and hold the deportation noose above their head. They accept this, but it doesn't justify exploitation. Just as sweatshop employees who accept their condition does not justify it. At the same time this kills wages for onshore employees, and creating a smaller talent pool with a self-fulfilling prophecy of disincentive for students to study engineering fields. Leading to the very situation we're in.

The H1B visa cap is already too high, and needs reformed so those ambitious souls who come in on it are paid salaries according to US market-rates and not a cent less. The answer is for wage-competition to skyrocket, more remote work and increased funding into education. Let's pay to educate our own, instead of just stealing those that other nations paid tax dollars to educate.

Orrin Hatch hates America and all workers around the world, evidenced by this plan to destroy US engineering and foreign economies by stealing their talent with this plan for unlimited H1Bs. Let's bring someone else in to do his job while we're at it.

Remember that if your business couldn't operate without exploiting others then it shouldn't exist. Don't let anyone like Microsoft and their allies convince you otherwise. They don't want to compete for labor in the free market, when it doesn't work to their favor.

This is critical for our future and social justice for the world community. Support Chuck Grassley and Jeff Sessions.
