If there is no shortage of US citizens that can fill STEM roles, then the H1-B program has no reason to take in STEM workers. Its purpose is to fill skill shortages. There is clearly no skills shortage, therefore the ban, while perhaps overkill, is not unjustified. Companies simply use it to get cheap labor.
- fredfoobar 6y agoWhen was the last time you hired to grow a team in SV?
- president 6y agoYes, you are stating the obvious, however, you neglect to understand that much of the policies that support H1-B labor are lobbied by corporations who want cheap slave labor and Indian consulting companies who want to ensure the H1-B pipeline stays alive. They will say anything including lie about "skill shortages" to enact these policies.
