Just some more propaganda to bring in more foreign guest workers who can do jobs Americans can’t do.

...and at (well) below market wages.

Several years ago, I interviewed at a CPA firm, and compensation was brought up in the first interview (pretty much a no-no with me, unless there's a bona fide job offer presented).

The interview ended shortly after I said, "I'm willing to work overtime, but not if it mean working 60 hours a week for 40 hours of pay."

I had a job for about two months for a company like that. My boss would go home about 10:00-11:00PM and be back around 2:00AM. Seven days a week and he couldn't understand why everyone else wouldn't do it even though there was no overtime pay.
