This article is protesting the idea of further limiting H1-B visas. Presumably most if not all H1-B recipients are "useful". The problem is that there is a massive amount of H1-B abuse, mostly on the part of the employers bringing them over here.

Legislation is needed to reform the system. I would be in favor of expanding the program if the widely abused loopholes were taken out.
