H-1B and L-1 visas have hollowed out opportunities for 🇺🇸 workers, leaving generations of families sidelined and dreams deferred. Here’s what Michael Emmons🇺🇸 and his family endured after he was asked to train his foreign replacements on these visas before being let go from Siemens:

Thirteen years ago, Jennifer Wedel from Texas asked Obama why the government kept processing more H-1B visas while her husband, a semiconductor engineer with over 10 years of experience, was unable to find a job after being laid off by Texas Instruments.

2016 Trump: “I will end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first.” 2024 Trump: “I promise to staple a Green Card to anyone who graduates from ANY college, even 2-yr community colleges.” This isn’t America First.

Alarming to see Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer get basic H-1B facts wrong. She claims employers must first advertise jobs to Americans first—which is FALSE. There’s no labor market test required, just self-attestation. How can you reform a program to protect Americans if you don’t understand it?

🧵 We warned of a massive surge in “Einstein” green card petitions driven by a cottage industry selling fake scientific credentials. Now a CBS investigation confirms it—exposing ghostwritten papers, paid awards, and credential inflation used to game the system. USCIS Director Joseph B. Edlow

“There’s so much H-1B visa abuse. You won’t believe what I saw when I was in Silicon Valley. It’s crazy! It’s insane! It’s obviously a program to try and replace U.S. workers with basically slave labor…” Absolutely correct Palmer Luckey!

“Using H-1B workers to replace capable and willing American citizens is turning entire communities upside down. Left unchecked it’ll turn our nation upside down” -Stacy Whetzell (TVA Engineer) It isn’t just illegal immigration hurting America Elon Musk!

Despite getting all the foreign workers they wanted through the H-1B visa program, Intel continues to crater as a company.

The H-1B visa program isn’t being “abused”. It’s working just as intended when congress created the visa in the Immigration Act of 1990 — to help companies displace and discriminate American workers.

Trump is once again making reckless statements about student visas, despite the strong backlash he faced the last time he did. This time, he references Apple’s concerns about visa restrictions affecting their ability to hire foreign talent. It’s worth noting that Apple paid a $25 million fine to the DOJ last year for discriminatory hiring practices against U.S. job applicants so they could get their foreign workers immigrant visas.

Suppose you're an employer looking to bypass the H-1B quota and want to bring in a foreign worker from your satellite office in India at their local salary, there's a visa for that—the L-1 visa! This is the visa that was used to replace Michael Emmons🇺🇸 and his colleagues at Siemens:

Nope. The program was specifically designed to help companies discriminate against Americans. After Congress passed the Immigration Act of 1990, which launched the H-1B visa program, AIG would use it to replace their American workers 5 years later. Dan Rather even did a segment on this. A dishonest tactic is to highlight a few outliers (some of whom didn’t even use the H-1B program) and claim they are representative of the entire program.

This isn’t true, since visa costs are negligible compared to the long-term salary savings. Why do you think Americans are often required to train their H-1B replacements before being laid off, as a 60 Minutes investigation revealed here:

Just a reminder: the executive branch created OPT—the largest guest worker program—by regulation, not law. It lets foreign students work after graduation and exempts both them and employers from payroll taxes for up to 5 years, undercutting U.S. grads. Stephen Miller should end this!

Today marks 5 years since we met Donald J. Trump at the White House after he saw our TV ad and stepped in to help save 200+ jobs at the Tennessee Valley Authority from being outsourced to H-1B-dependent firms. Since then, the H-1B crisis has only gotten worse — and voters are fed up with Congress doing nothing. On November 10, tech workers from across the country are heading to DC to demand change. If you’ve been impacted, don’t stay silent — join us and make your voice heard. Registration for the event is available through the link in the replies.
