"Kamala Harris’ allegiance lies with big tech in Silicon Valley" and with jobs for foreign visitors, not American workers

"Lynn has rallied white-collar opposition to Harris’s S.386 bill because it would invite more foreign workers to take many American white-collar jobs in the tech sector.

The invitation is created by the bill’s requirement that the tech sector’s foreign contract workers be fast-tracked into green cards and a new “Green Card Lite” status. That status would reward the tech CEOs and their subcontractors for indirectly selling the jobs, careers, and salaries needed by American college graduates to many millions of desperate, eager, and compliant foreign graduates.

Most of those contract workers — including the workforce of 600,000 H-1B visa workers — are from India, the home country of Harris’s Indian mother.

On August 5, Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) blocked passage of the S.386 bill, which has been given passive approval by all other senators. Scott reportedly blocked the bill at the request of the White House, but Trump has not formally denounced the bill.

The S.386 outsourcing bill is being pushed in a stealth lobbying campaign by Fortune 500 groups, ensuring minimal media coverage except by Breitbart News. But the tech lobby’s support for the campaign is also periodically exposed by corporate endorsements, such as from Microsoft Corp."

    What is it they say about socialism? Easy to vote your way in, but you have to shoot your way out.

    A Kamaltoe reign of terror (Joe who?) promises to be worse for American jobs (and not just jobs) than that Obamanation we lived through for 8 years.
    What will likely end next is our Constitution Republic long ago created for We The People.
    Socialism is easy as sin to slip into and hard as hell to rip free of.
