Beg to differ. H1B's may live the high life in Big Tech, but that is not the experience of most H1Bs. For the rest, it is akin to indentured servitude. They are dramatically underpaid compared to American counterparts and unable to change jobs without losing your place in line for citizenship. I have worked with Indian subcontractors that have waited 20 years! H1B is nothing more than the wealthy using labor arbitrage to exploit foreign workers at the expense of American workers.


>I have worked with Indian subcontractors that have waited 20 years!

And you think this suspension will help them?


The solution is not to increase them, that's for sure. The solution is to abolish the quota system which Democrats keep upholding for their Big Tech overlords.


Not interested in helping them. Interested in ending a system that is not working out well for Americans.
