On Saturday, The Western Journal<\/a> posted an article about a change the Biden administration made to the H-1B visa rules. the H-1B visa program has been used by a number of American companies to avoid paying the wages that American workers demand. The visas are particularly common in high-tech industries.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

A few short weeks before he left office, staffers for now-former President Joe Biden expanded H-1B visa rules to allow foreign workers to work remotely.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In recent days, a viral social post<\/a> has noticed that \u201cHundreds of H1Bs have listed the same residential buildings in Irving, Texas as their address of employment.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The poster of the data set said that \u201cthese scammers are either committing tax fraud by claiming to work in Texas,\u201d or they are \u201cactually working in California or they went back to India<\/a> and are lying about their work address.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

…According to an investigation<\/a> from Blaze Media, a trend of H-1B<\/a> visa holders working from is linked to a Biden administration final rule<\/a> issued on Dec. 18, 2024, just over one month before the end of Biden\u2019s term.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Department of Homeland Security thereby decided that remote work in \u201chigher education, nonprofit research, or government research\u201d would be allowed in the form of \u201ctelework, remote work, or other off-site work.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article notes:<\/p>\n

One analysis<\/a> from the Federation for American Immigration Reform noted that \u201cabuse and fraud have plagued the H-1B visa program\u201d for decades.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe H-1B visa lobby, primarily tech giants and outsourcing firms, frequently claim that a sustained influx of foreign guest workers is necessitated by labor shortages,\u201d the group noted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, the program does not supplement the U.S. workforce. Rather, it supplants able-bodied Americans with foreign workers who are beholden to their employers by virtue of their presence in the U.S. depending upon employer sponsorship.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In some cases, American workers have even been laid off and then made to train the foreigners hired to replace them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis happened in a famous, but not isolated 2015 case involving Disney<\/a> World and its decision to replace many skilled American employees with foreign H-1B workers and then forcing them to train their replacements,\u201d the analysis noted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whoever was running the Biden administration was in the pocket of big tech. I am sure they assumed the change in the rules at the last minute would go unnoticed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
