[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Skilled Legal versus illegal migration matters a lot.

The highly skilled visas specialty occupations include fields such as architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, medicine and health, education, business specialties, accounting, law, theology, and the arts.

Highly skilled foreign workers are filling gaps in US markets and help grow industries that create more jobs for Americans . Also other countries have paid for their education so that saves the US a lot of money while US gets to benefit from their education and work experience.

FACT SHEET by American Immigration Council 
The highly skilled Visa Program and Its Impact on the U.S. Economy

Foreign workers fill a critical need in the U.S. labor market—particularly in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Every year, U.S. employers seeking highly skilled foreign professionals compete for the pool of H-1B visa numbers for which U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) controls the allocation.i With a low statutory limit of visa numbers available, demand for H-1B visa numbers has outstripped the supply in recent years, and the cap has been reached before the year ends. Research shows that H-1B workers complement U.S. workers, fill employment gaps in many STEM occupations, and expand job opportunities for all.[/quote]

If US STEM and tech workers are being laid off, why do we need H1-B visas to double in those fields?

Take a look at the H2B visa wages: https://www.epi.org/blog/h-2b-crabpickers-maryland-seafood-industry-paid-less-than-average/[/quote]
Yep, Trump's resorts use H2Bs.[/quote]

That's not the visa being talked about here.  Trump is actually wrong saying he used H1 in his companies.  The government has a site listing all the visa employers.  Trump is not listed.[/quote]
The ^PP linked an article about H2b, which is what I was responding to.  Trump loves H1 now because his financier loves them.[/quote]
