NASSCOM said the quiet part out loud. When faced with higher costs and restrictions on H-1B visas, the concern wasn't that jobs would go unfilled because America lacked skilled workers.
It was that companies like Infosys would have to “hire many more local Americans, which would be expensive.”
Read that again. Americans weren't described as unavailable. Americans were described as the more expensive alternative.
And they acknowledged the other half of the problem.. companies with a “strong local American presence” would have a competitive advantage if visa-dependent companies lost easy access to that labor.
That tells Americans exactly what this business model does. Use visa labor to lower costs. Compete against companies that hire more Americans. Win their contracts. And now those American-employing companies have fewer jobs to offer too.
The American worker loses twice.
So why are we still debating what these visa programs are being used for? Their statements tell us the incentive. The immigration filings show us the scale. The layoffs show us who pays the price.
How much more evidence does Congress need before it answers why U.S. immigration policy gives companies a competitive advantage for hiring visa workers instead of Americans?

🚨 WOW! Scott Bessent is GOING OFF on Elizabeth Warren for being CLUELESS about economics, yet acting like she knows everything
"She's on the Senate FINANCE Committee, the Senate BANKING Committee — and neither she nor her staff know the difference between a foreign exchange intervention or a currency swap!"
"It is SHAMEFUL!"
"And MORE shameful is that the MEDIA hasn't called her out on it."
Bessent is on FIRE today 🔥🔥
.@SecScottBessent: "She is on the Senate Finance Committee, she is the ranking member of the Senate Banking Committee — and neither she nor her staff know the difference between a foreign exchange intervention or a currency swap. It is shameful."
I just realized Canada’s tariff war has nothing to do with tariffs. They are trying to influence the mid term elections to get democrats elected in the U. S. and hopefully keep the globalist in power at the cost to the American taxpayers…..
Every day we see layoffs at major American companies.
Then we see these same companies hiring foreigners on H-1B visas.
There should not be one H-1B visa issued to any company that lays off Americans. Not. One.
The fact that leftists use the Handmaid's Tale to protest Christianity while ignoring the fact that it's way more similar to Islam will never not be hilarious to me.
In 2027, as the new face of the @WNBA, my first goal will be to encourage every player and every coach to stand for the National Anthem with their hands over their hearts.🇺🇸

After 11 years as a sports columnist at the Seattle Times, I have decided to resign. It was entirely my choice, and it was not an easy one. The impetus was the Times declining to run a column I wrote from the perspective of two female student athletes who were opposed to competing against biological males. It was one of several pieces of mine that had been spiked, and I no longer felt like I could properly do my job as a columnist. I lay out the situation in greater detail in the link below, but I want to say that I enjoyed my time with the paper, find the talent there to be immense, and have no animosity toward anyone who works there. It was just time for a change.

Here is my message to all the radical socialists who are trying to infiltrate Congress:
You are not welcome.
America rejects you and your bad ideas.
Take your failed ideology somewhere else.
So let me get this straight...the DSA candidate in Wisconsin is leading by double digits in all the polls...Democrats start flipping out because its revealled that she is a communist who wants to cancel Thanksgiving and will probably cost them the seat...so they pull someone back into the race who had already dropped out, and he magically wins after misplaced thumb drives are found...
Gee, @SpanbergerForVA, that's some bizarre stuff, right?
Reagan said it best: Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Remember that when you head to the polls this November. Vote for freedom, not socialism.

Charlie Kirk gives Socialist influencer Hasan Piker a chance to practice what he preaches and give away 95% of his income and live in a socialist country
Hasan Piker refuses to give up a single dollar of his income
His net worth is estimated to be $20-$35 million, but can’t give up a single dollar to be a true socialist
It’s all a scam. Socialism is about taking your money while the government officials and all their insider friends live like kings above the law
