Sponsors of More H-1B Guest Worker Visa Bills Who Lost Their Seats

November 5th, 2008 · 4 Comments

While Obama positions a notorious Corporate lobbyists’ wet dream as his chief of staff, how exactly did those who sponsored H-1B or other guest worker Visas devised to labor arbitrage U.S. citizens fare in this election?

  • Gordon Smith [R-OR] - Sponsored S.1029 a major H-1B increase plus promoted more guest worker Visas in his campaign
  •    Lost to Jeff Merkley - Numbers to be updated

  • John Sununu [R-NH] - Sponsored S.2839, a major H-1B and F-4 bill
  • Lost to Shaheen, 52% to 45%

  • Elizabeth Dole [R-NC]- Co-Sponsored S. 2868, which gave anyone a green card or Visa who simply obtained an advanced degree, a true disaster for US workers
  • Lost to Hagan, 53% to 44%

  • Tom Feeney [R-FL 24] - Co Sponsored H.R. 1930, yet another massive H-1B and F-4 increase against United States Professionals
  • Lost to Kosmas, 57% to 41%

  • Thelma Drake [R-VA-10] - Co-sponsored H.R. 1930
  • Lost to Nye, 52% to 48%

Obama & McCain on Professional Workers - Bottom Line American Workers, YOU’RE SCREWED!

November 1st, 2008 · 5 Comments

There have been many misinformation posts on Barack Obama and John McCain on H-1B and F-4 Visas.  Bottom line American workers, you are royally screwed by both candidates

John McCain wants to increase H-1B Visas.  So does Barack Obama.  Think either of them are putting U.S. workers first?  Think again!  Neither of them will even co-sponsor S.1035, the reforms for H-1B.  L-1.    Never even crosses their lips!

Both McCain and Obama issue corporate lobbyist talking points that have no basis in economic reality, completely ignoring the brain drain for the United States. When U.S. workers. U.S. professionals become underemployed, labor arbitraged with all of that skill and talent sitting idle, America further inches towards third world status by refusing to invest in it’s people and build up expertise from it’s own citizenry.

Even worse, the F-4 Visa, is a dangerous agenda for it tries to turn our entire educational system into a glorified green card machine. Imagine what will happen if Americans are forced to compete to even gain entry into our education system against the world’s population. That is indeed was is proposed and both candidates endorse it. As usual, both candidates put U.S. citizens last. Both candidates endorse global labor arbitrage, make no mistake.
