Trump administration moves to end work permits for spouses of skilled foreign workers
yea, so?
Step # 1. There will be miles further to go.
Good start, when passed. Next step would be to cut the work visa acceptance rate in 1/2.
Need to cut down on the H1B’s.
YAY
Time to end the Screw Americans twofer that TATA “consulting” has been running for the last 25 years
Let’s just close our borders …. permanently! Do it for at least 5 years! Nothing in or out.
WE need the 5 years to round up and deport all Illegals!
Making drastic changes to these visa programs will create economic disruptions during the transition. It will take some time to replace the foreign workers who get sent home.
Occam’s Razor answer is that Trump does not want to do anything that might disrupt the economy until after the 2020 election.
I’m much more concerned that their children born here are automatically given citizenship.
good move. If you’re coming here as a ‘skilled’ foreign worker, you come alone and go back home alone. No families for bleeding heart arguments later to stay.
This will indirectly reduce H1B’s . Somewhat.
People don’t just dislike 4chan, they attempt to strike a sophisticated air by heaping great loathing on 4chan.
Let me tell you something about those kooks:
They’re sort of a barometer of the Trump Base. Starting about a week ago or so the 4chan people are not happy with Trump.
Are they blue-haired, basement-dwelling kooks? Yeah, a LOT of them.
But somehow, there is something about drunks, artists and kids knowing changes before anyone else.
I really, really think Trump needs to shut up completely about bringing tons of H1b people.
One more thing:
There should be a legal change disallowing US citizenship to any child born to an H1b working in America.
I think a lot of H1b’s “get busy” during their USA stays specifically to make anchor babies.
I don’t understand how that is better than the Chinese chicks who jet over here, squirt out a child for the blue passport, then hurry home.
To me it’s the same.
Shirley there must some judge in Dumpwater, Florida that can stop this
“Need to cut down on the H1B’s.”
Companies layoff Americans before H1Bs, because with an American you just have to give them severance. With H1Bs, they get severance and repatriation expenses, that includes paying to ship their crap back, providing them with transportation and moving expenses and purchasing their homes if they are having a difficult time selling them.
My former employer pulled this last summer (15% staff reduction). Only Americans got pink slips. All the H1Bs were retained.
Did you even read the article you posted?
It frees up positions for 100,000 Americans. And it can be done administratively.
That’s impactful.
“The Trump administration has moved forward with its plans to end work permits given to the spouses of skilled foreign workers, an action that could affect nearly 100,000 nationwide, including close to 12,000 in New Jersey.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security, published a notice of its proposed rule change last week with the White House Office of Management and Budget, the first step required to end the granting of Employment Authorization Documents, or EADs, to H-4 visa holders. An H-4 visa is given to the spouses of workers who obtain an H-1B visa to live and work in the United States. “
Oh bull crap. Disruption, do you mean getting a good job and playing your bills that kind of disruption? LOL
Getting rid of H-1B’s would make the economy BETTER! There would be a hiring bonanza!
End Social Security payments to families of H1b.
Believe it or not, this is going on behind the H1b firewall.
Do it.
Costco has turned into H1B shoppers...
Don’t really care about them being here but, culturally there is a Yuge mismatch.
They will glom and lay siege to any food for free and it feels like it’s an entire village.
I just don’t want any free food and wait forever.
I hear stories about this all the time in Silicon Valley.
People are helping other H1B’s bring their families and somehow they are getting Social Security, despite never working one day in America and all the other bene’s as well.
