He wanted ZERO restrictions -- read the underlined again --
In the middle of his campaign when he got gob-smacked with this, he (1) Folded like a cheap suit and flip flopped., and (2) Said he "didn't know it was being abused" even though he ignored "offshore outsourcing".
STEM and IT workers nationwide should beware the H1B sudden flip flop of Ted Cruz
Ted is not pussyfooting around!
I like Cruz on most things, but this is an Achilles heel...support for TPA & TPP also.
I have 3 pussy cats. Nothing offensive there
Avoiding a question of how to get info out of a terrorist if you feel within minutes and have to act fast, which enhanced interrogation techniques to use showed Cruz is totally PC.
We need a tough and decisive President. Obama is an example of how bad it is to have a weak waffling lead from behind leader. No thank you No Cruz.
Go Trump Go

Translation? Can’t get all this government-speak. What is H-1B?
lol. I know the diff btwn TPA and TPP, but lump them together.
H-1B essentially is a high tech worker.
It’s a visa they give to foreigners who they think have training in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM). IT is ‘information technology”, one aspect of the STEM category. They come to our country and take American jobs even though we have huge numbers of workers trained in those areas.
They are desired because they take half the pay that the market is paying. First, their ‘degrees’ are suspect. Second, their “English” certifications are a joke.
H-1B is a program to make all indigenous STEM workers unemployed by importing foreigners as indentured servants to do their job at 60% of the prevailing wage. Once these foreigners get their green card and some do become US citizens then they vote Democrat.
Cruz is not understanding that we have lots of unemployed STEM people who are qualified and experienced available.
We are hiring High Tech Low Wage foreign SCABS.
Look at the Disney case. They had their qualified staff train the Foreign cheap labor Scabs first. Then Disney laid off their staffs.
The Disney staff was more experienced, but they have to pay for benefit that Scabs don’t get.
Disney wanted to lay off staff that makes 35% salary, vacation, pension. How do you think America can expect to have students go into Stem college courses, get loaded down with college loan debt, if all they see in their future is getting laid off at best and no jobs after graduation at worst.
Chad Sweet’s wife is CEO of North America for Accenture.
yep...there is nothing wrong with immigrants that are smart and not a threat...people want to b.tch about everything
My article is right. I REMEMBER when Cruz flip-flopped on this over all the grief he was getting on it.
Tell that to your wife when you've been laid off and replaced by 3 Indian h-1b visa holders that can barley speak proper English.
HEY !!! Cruz !!!
When every American citizen has a job, and the registered aliens have a job, then we’ll talk about the need for foreigners to come here to work...
