A Petition for Immediate Administrative Reforms to Our Non-Immigrant Visa System
Our petition seeks immediate action from the U.S. Department of Labor and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to address the widespread harm caused by the mismanagement and exploitation of immigration programs, including H-1B, PERM, and F-1/OPT. These programs have led to both the displacement of U.S. workers and wage suppression. Combined with a lack of transparency, these programs have contributed to the erosion of job opportunities for American workers, particularly in the tech sector. By allowing employers to abuse these programs, U.S. agencies have created an environment in which American workers and students are unfairly forced to compete with cheaper foreign labor, ultimately harming the long-term stability of the U.S. labor market.

There was a huge drop in the number of entries in the H-1B lottery as employers shunned the $100k fee.
Due to the reduced number of entries, the chance of winning the lottery increased.
But the demand for cheap labor still greatly exceeds the 85k cap.
$100K H-1B Entry Fee Did Not Reduce H-1B Visas | @CIS_org
There will be 85,000 quota H-1B visas this year, as there were last year and the year before. The $100,000 fee...

Chamberlain Group is advertising this $153k engineering role in the Chicago Tribune - paper mail app only
The role is a CS engineer, who would work remote.
Apply by mail is the same tactic Facebook was sued by the DOJ and settled for $14M for discrimination against Americans.
At USCIS, we’ve declared full-scale war on immigration fraud. We’re going back and revetting cases for people who were granted green cards and other benefits during the Biden administration—when vetting was lax.
There's rigorous vetting now, and we're reopening these old cases.
Are U.S. residency programs favoring foreign doctors over qualified Americans? 🤔
Data suggests yes and it may violate federal law.

Hmmm. A website that links eager foreigners with complicit American employers. How novel. . .
@SecretaryLCD has been at her post for just over 12 months and in all that time has done nothing to create a website that would list jobs employers are running through PERM. For decades,
Are you an American? Born here? Generations deep? Looking for a job?
Yeah… this job board is not for you.
Introducing Migrate Mate.. the job board where the entire selling point is making sure employers are ready to sponsor foreign workers before you even apply.
Because why
why is national life insurance co asking job applicants for this job advertised in the Dallas Morning News classifieds to paper mail resumes to an employee in Vermont?
could it be they don't want any applications from Americans, so they can sponsor a green card for this job?
Thanks to @DanNewsManBall for having me on to highlight the advanced measures @USCIS is taking under @SecMullinDHS’ and @POTUS' leadership to combat immigration fraud.
Unlike under the previous administration, fraud is not something we’re going to ignore.
It is the same if you push back against the H-1B visa or STEM OPT.
Imagine an algorithm that says if you mention Elon Musk in a negative way, not only will nobody see that tweet, but your reach will be destroyed. This is @x algorithm right now. Then they turn around to lecture about 'great content' on X when it's all fake.
Texas A&M University (@TAMU) just hired an H-1B "Operations Research and Reporting Analyst"

Kevin Lynn, Executive Director of Institute for Sound Public Policy and Founder U.S. Tech Workers had a great time speaking with @MizzouCRs last night about how federal government programs such as H-1B visa and STEM OPT are wreaking havoc on their career prospects. Thanks so much
