| For the upcoming fiscal year, businesses are seeking to outsource
| nearly 310,000 high-skilled jobs through the H-1B visa program,
| according to data published by the Dallas Morning News.
|
| Similar trends are occurring with low-skilled jobs where there has
| been a 60 percent spike over the last four years in the number of
| foreign H-2A visa workers that U.S. farms have sought to import.
|
| Even as nearly 16 million Americans are jobless and another 4.6
| million are underemployed, business executives said the solution to
| getting workers is not getting jobless Americans off the sidelines
| of the labor market but rather inflating the labor market with more
| foreign workers.

warned Donald Trump that Tom Donohue and Dick Trumka were allied
to elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris:

| The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is pushing for major reforms. Last
| month, it called for doubling the annual cap on H-1B and H-2B visas,
| eliminating per-country caps on green cards and other immigration
| changes.
|
| "An immigration system that functions well and meets the economic
| needs of the United States would go a significant way to addressing
| workforce shortages," said Jon Baselice, vice president of
| immigration policy for the U.S. Chamber.
|
| Last month, he took his son on a trip to Pittsburgh, and the hotel
| was only halfway open because it couldn't get enough help to keep
| the rooms clean, he said.

Does Bill Stepien's data suggest legacy American proles are eager
to be sold their dispossession by the Cheap Labor Lobby's crapweasel's
in the imperial capitol?
