[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't understand the scope of H1B overtaking the U.S. high tech landscape? Take a drive to the Broadlands neighborhood in Ashburn, VA. It is heavily Indian. They are buying new $1M+ houses with all the bells and whistles.

Do you think these H1B immigrants who are buying these homes are underpaid and overworked? Man, do I have a bridge to sell ya.

There are other previous threads that carefully spell out the scam pipeline involving bribery, South Asians responsible for the hiring process, etc. I urge everyone to read them.

This scam pipeline is hurting American workers. I live in Loudoun County and see the surging population of H1B immigrants. My friends and neighbors, brilliant and profoundly qualified, are losing their jobs to these people.

This is very true. The same is happening in Atlanta suburbs, and it’s astonishing how quickly this has taken place. Entire new neighborhoods with $800k+ homes are being populated with Indian families, in areas they didn’t previously have a presence in. It’s the jobs. They are getting paid $$$$$$, and they hire each other.[/quote]

You’re my neighbor, I can tell. It’s exactly this. Farmland sells - developer - new homes - within weeks i see the bus stop kids are 100% Indian mostly middle or high schoolers. I drive by 12 of these developments every morning, and they were only built in the last two years.[/quote]

Have you asked yourselves who is making $$ off these Indians moving into the suburbs? Or is it just the workers fault?[/quote]
Seriously. I don't fault people for using legal means to get jobs in the US that these US companies are offering to them.[/quote]

i dont either.

i do fault Democrats for not only allowing this to happen but ADVOCATING FOR MORE of this!

[b]1 - Why are Democrats suing to allow US Universities to replace US citizens with cheap h1bs? [/b]

US Public Universities claim they cannot find skilled labor and yet they are the very institutions that train skilled labor.

it is not about skilled labor , it is about cheap labor.  and replacing US citizens.

A coalition of blue states is suing the Trump administration over its fee of $100,000 for H-1B Visas, several Democratic attorneys general announced on Friday.
The Trump administration announced in September that it would be implementing the fee for H-1B visas, citing that the program for the visas is overused. California Attorney General Rob Bonta, joined by Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and New York Attorney General Letitia James and others, is leading the suit.

2 - why are Democrats advocating for expanding OPT?

OPT is used to replace US college grads with cheap labor, subsidized by federal government.  Biden expanded.   Many Democrats want to expand.   NONE have advocated for elimination.

3 - why are Democrats advocating for expanding H-1B?

point to a single democrat that has proposed repeal of H-1B?   none.   multiple republican proposals, but absolutely NONE from Democrats.   I have called Kaine and Warner and Connelly multiple times and all respond with emails claiming strong support for H-1B.

that is the real tragedy.   How Democrats have lied to US workers and pushed to expand them with cheap disposable temporary foreign labor. [/quote]

You think Democrats are the only ones fighting to keep H1-B?  Tons of Republicans want that cheap foreign labor.  Tons of MAGAs have been taught to hate American universities and educated Americans and stupidly could care if our STEM programs implode.[/quote]

point to a SINGLE DEMOCRAT advocating for limiting H-1B or OPT or L1.

a SINGLE DEMOCRAT??

multiple republicans have pushed forward proposals.[/quote]

Here's one
H‑1B and L‑1 Visa Reform Act of 2025
Lead Democrat: Sen. Dick Durbin (D‑IL), Ranking Member of Judiciary
Co‑sponsor: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D‑CT)
Bill: S.2928 (119th Congress)  
Date introduced: Sept. 29, 2025  [/quote]

that bill is not a repeal or pause or limit.

it keeps H1B and L1.   does NOTHING to stop the replacement of US workers. [/quote]
