H-1B visa: Trump nominee for Attorney General vows curbs on misuse; says 'we have borders'
FirstpostThe Office of Special Counsel for Immigration related unfair employment practices is an office within the Justice Department which would be headed by Senator Jeff Sessions if he is confirmed by the US Senate. “It’s simply wrong to think that we’re in a totally open world and that any American with a job can be replaced if somebody in the world is willing to take a job for less pay,” Senator Jeff Sessions told members of Senate Judiciary Committee during his confirmation hearing for the position of US Attorney General. Describing Sessions as a vocal champion for American workers, Grassley said many American workers are being laid off and replaced by cheaper foreign labour imported through some of the US visa programmes. Sessions, Grassley and Senator Dick Durbin in the past had co-sponsored a bill that would reform H-1B visa programmes by ensuring that qualified American workers are considered for high skilled job opportunities before those jobs can be offered to foreign nationals.
