The H-1B program is a scam. Ron DeSantis: ‘Companies lay off Americans while bringing in new H-1Bs. It’s not the best and brightest—it’s a cottage industry, mostly from one country. With AI displacing young workers, why import more foreign labor instead of protecting our own?’

Amazon is *firing* Americans but still *hiring* foreign H-1Bs from India and China. There's only one Governor in America who is standing up to the H-1B scam and that's Ron DeSantis. Last week, he pulled the plug on Florida colleges replacing Americans with H-1B foreign labor.

"The AI that truly threatens American workers is not *artificial intelligence*—it’s *arrogant immigration*. The arrogance of Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft to announce they're firing American workers while *keeping* foreign H-1Bs on the payroll. The arrogance of Republicans and Democrats in Congress who refuse to end the H-1B scam that allows companies import foreign labor from India and China, fire Americans, and then force Americans to train their replacements.

Microsoft’s Indian CEO just fired 3,200 American workers while filing for 5,000 new H-1B visas. This is exactly why any company that does mass layoffs should be banned from hiring H-1Bs to replace them. Companies are undercutting loyal American employees to bring in cheaper foreign labor, and the result is worse products and the destruction of our tech industry. This is not free market success. It is civilizational suicide. Trump needs to implement a simple rule: if you lay off American workers, you lose the ability to hire H-1Bs. Protecting our own people first is basic common sense.

70% of recent college grads aren’t working in their field. Why? Companies like Amazon fire Americans, import H-1Bs from India, then claim our people aren’t smart enough. It’s a slanderous lie. Americans are the brightest, hardest working, hungriest people on earth.

70% of college grads *are not* working a full-time job in their field of study. Amazon just laid off 30,000 Americans and then hired 10,000 more H-1Bs from India. We have to get honest about our labor market policy, and what I want to see from President Trump is exactly what Governor Ron DeSantis did in my state of Florida: pull the plug on the H-1B program.

🚨 JUST IN: Governor Ron DeSantis goes off on H-1B visa system. "We've got some BIG problems with some of the legal programs we have. This H-1B program - the Americans train the H-1B [workers], they fire the Americans and hire the H-1B. How would that even remotely be acceptable?"

🚨 POTUS FLIP-FLOP? H-1B Visas Are Back in the Spotlight Back in 2016, President Trump called H-1B visas “very bad for workers” and said “we should end it.” Now? He says “we don’t have the talent” and America needs to import workers. ...Ask the thousands of Americans laid off in tech, manufacturing, and engineering if they agree. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is taking action - introducing a bill to eliminate the H-1B program and restore protections for American workers. “It’s time to put Americans first, not foreign labor.”

🚨 Sara Gonzales DROPS A BOMBSHELL ON THE H-1B VISA SCAM! “It’s a really, really nasty scam, and it’s happening everywhere.” She just exposed how these visas are being abused, even by a Texas food truck outfit. American workers getting screwed over while companies flood the system with cheap foreign labor through dirty loopholes. This is why we must PAUSE the abuse immediately and put AMERICANS FIRST. No more replacing our people!

🚨 Microsoft is raking in record profits, yet they’re laying off American workers and bringing in thousands on H-1B visas. The entire purpose of the H-1B program is to enable companies to AVOID hiring Americans. This is insane.

Here’s Jon Baselice from the Chamber of Commerce saying the Chamber doesn’t agree that H-1B visas harm American workers and that companies should do a better job of hiding that fact. He adds that some H-1Bs displacing Americans is just part of “growth”:

JENKS: Yes, new H-1Bs from abroad are down because of the $100K fee. But companies are backfilling with foreign workers and students already here, so there’s no real drop in total H-1B visas.

WINTERS: The “best and brightest” is a scam. 87% of H-1Bs are in the lowest wage tiers, 52% Level 1, 30% Level 2, just 6% top tier. Over half of STEM jobs go to foreign-born workers. OPT exploded from 24K to 194K. H-1Bs hit 780,884, up 1100%. This is replacement, not merit. Natalie Winters

For too long, corporations have used the H-1B program to replace American workers with cheap foreign labor. I directed the U.S. Department of Labor to issue a report on how the program hurts Americans. It’s time that we finally put the American worker FIRST.

So-called American companies say they have no choice but to use the H-1B program because they “can’t find Americans for these jobs.” Here’s the ugly truth: they’re not even looking for Americans. They refuse to interview them. They hide job postings in obscure newspapers to “check the box,” and when no one “applies,” they import another foreign worker—denying yet another qualified American a job, a wage, and the dignity and purpose that come with both. It’s disgraceful. It’s time to finally and fully dismantle the H-1B scam.

🚨 BREAKING: House Republicans' legislation to ABOLISH H-1B visas is infuriating Indian media because it would finally end their foreign scam Rep. Greg Steube is pushing it: "All of these individuals that are coming into our country are taking jobs away from Americans!" 🔥 "These are young, entry-level tech-type positions, like Microsoft is a big taker of H-1Bs. Amazon is the number one taker of H-1Bs. So they're taking away jobs from Americans." "I can't think what would be more America-first than the doing away with a program that's taking away especially entry-level jobs for young people!"

“You’d be hard-pressed to design a worse system.” —- @RonHira on the H-1B visa program. Corporations don’t hire H-1Bs to fill real shortages. “They hire them because guest workers have fewer rights, can be paid less, and are easier to control.” It’s a no-brainer for companies. Sold as a merit-based program for the “best and brightest.” Delivered as a cheap, controllable labor arbitrage tool. “It has nothing to do with merit or competence. And it’s not the best and brightest. These are ordinary skilled workers.” America First means American workers first. Time to fix this rigged system. Secretary Marco Rubio Donald J. Trump Senator Eric Schmitt Brenda Kearns McClintock for Congress American Moment
