Well, if you want to kill the H1B program completely, sure. However, if the idea is to have it survive and, dare I say it, be used for the beneficial purpose of bringing vital new blood to the country's workforce instead of being a cheap source of labor, then employers need strong incentive to spend the money needed to get someone into US without fear that they will simply walk off. It's not what I want as a US employee (my self-interest is to have as few people of the same skill as possible in order to command highest salary), but it is something that would be needed in order to get some sort of a chance at having such rules pass.
