In federal government, two of the three biggest categories of employees are nurses and IT workers - and no doubt many of the 400,000 pushed out of federal work were in those classifications. We import tons of nurses from the Philippines etc. Perhaps that needs to be re-evaluated as nurses pushed out of the VA look for work. Likewise, IT. Many feds working in IT have specialized IT expertise that is hard to find in the private sector, like cybersecurity, geospatial, and so on. Again, we need to be pumping the brakes on H1-B and prioritizing American workers.

Urge your Members of Congress to support and pass H.R. 251, the Legal Workforce Act, and S. 1151, the Accountability Through Electronic Verification Act, to mandate E-Verify for all employers and complete the administration’s worksite enforcement crackdown.

ICE has dramatically escalated worksite enforcement. The agency’s rate of I-9 audits in 2025 was at least ten times the rate of 2024, and ICE has publicly reported more than 40 worksite enforcement actions resulting in over 1,100 arrests since the start of the Trump administration’s second term. In March 2026, ICE reclassified dozens of common I-9 paperwork errors from “technical” violations – which employers could correct during an audit – to “substantive” violations that trigger immediate fines of $288 to $2,861 per form with no opportunity to fix them. An employer with just 200 forms containing these errors could now face penalties exceeding half a million dollars.

ICE also now has access to 1.28 million employer tax records through an IRS data-sharing agreement, and DHS has requested access to a federal employment database covering virtually every worker in the country. The administration has funded 10,000 new ICE officers – the largest personnel increase in agency history – and is using I-9 audits not just for civil penalties but to identify unauthorized workers for removal and pursue criminal charges against employers.

This enforcement surge is welcome – but it exposes a fundamental gap in the law. Employers are still only required to visually inspect work authorization documents at the point of hire. They are not required to verify those documents against government records. That gap is why illegal hiring persists even under the most aggressive enforcement campaign in memory – and it is exactly what mandatory E-Verify would close. Penn Wharton estimates that mandatory E-Verify would raise wages for authorized workers by 5%.

Please send a message to your U.S. Representative and your two U.S. Senators urging them to support and pass H.R. 251, the Legal Workforce Act, and S. 1151, the Accountability Through Electronic Verification Act, to mandate E-Verify for all employers.

Again, MAGA completely ignoring responses.

We're ignoring ignorant liberal posts. Many states have strict e-verify, they just are mostly all Republican states.

This is another one of those things, where it just isn't good enough for Democrats to say they support immigration restrictions, they need to actually pass something with the levers they control to show us. e-verify would be an excellent start though.

Trump calls H-1B visas necessary to bring in 'certain talents' that he says the U.S. lacks
In an interview with Fox News, Trump said that in some cases, "You can’t take people off an unemployment, like an unemployment line, and say, 'I’m going to put you into a factory.'"

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-h1b-visa-program-maga-elon-musk-rcna185656

Trump told the New York Post that he has “always liked the visas.” The H-1B visa program allows employers to temporarily hire non-U.S. citizens for highly skilled jobs.

“I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program,” he said, according to the outlet’s report.

Trump Organization sought to bring in nearly 200 workers on visas in 2025

President’s family business requested at least 184 foreign workers for Mar-a-Lago, Virginia winery and two golf club

https://thehill.com/business/5603478-trump-organization-foreign-workers-2025/

The Trump Organization requested 184 foreign workers to work across various company properties, a record number that has increased over the years.

https://www.mooreandassociates.net/2018/07/03/trumps-history-of-hiring-immigrants-and-employment-law/

Trump hired undocumented immigrants for one of his demolition projects. He paid them $4 an hour. It appears that Trump’s practice of hiring immigrant workers to save money is not an isolated occurrence. The Hill reports that Trump only hired one American worker out of 144 seasonal openings at his Mar a Lago resorts.

In the case of the demolition project in New York, Trump eventually settled the case with the demolition workers for $1.3 million. The workers claimed that they sometimes put in 12 to 16 hour shifts are were often not provided with safety equipment while working. Reports indicate that Trump threatened the workers with deportation when they complained about not being paid or protected on the job. The workers eventually won a wage violation case as well.

Not a single MAGA complaining about Trump. Apparently, Trump can't find low skilled American workers.
