Senator Lemieux Represents India's Business Interests
This is amazing. Senator Lemieux was appointed to the Senate in 2009, not elected, by then Republican Florida Governor and pal Charlie Crist. Sen. Lemieux is quoted in the India press as being a great representative for Indian offshore outsourcing businesses.
It seems Senator Lemieux will speak up for us
This is quoted by India, claiming oh it will hurt their business to pay $2000 more per foreign imported worker, displacing Americans with cheap labor. Oh bummer, their U.S. worker displacement business might get a cut into their glorified slave trade profits.
India is claiming they will get a H-1B fee increase rolled back, in spite of the fee increase passing both houses of Congress and signed into law by the President of the United States.
Even worse, they seem to believe (or know) that some of our Senators do not represent the United States, her workers and her citizens and instead represent India.
The H-1B Visa and other foreign guest worker Visas are being used by offshore outsourcing companies to bring in foreign labor, at lower prices than American labor, causing American tech workers to lose their jobs. It's pure labor arbitrage as a business model.
Please write your Senators, Congress representatives and especially the White House. On the resources page on this site are links to their phone numbers.
The idea of other nation dictating our laws, our immigration policy, even claiming to have representation in our Congress and government is obscene.
guy who fired Lou Dobbs....fired!
Can we potentially get Lou Dobbs back? He was the ONLY voice on cable news speaking truth on offshore outsourcing and guest workers.
Jon Klein fired from CNN.
What goes around....
in all seriousness, it was obvious Jon Klein was in the corporate tank and has pushed the racist xenophobe never ending mantra when talking about the realities of global labor arbitrage.
He censored Lou Dobbs because he didn't like what he said, simple as that. Add to that the open borders special interest groups targeted Dobbs because they want their open borders, unlimited migration agenda and could care less how that affects the U.S. workforce and labor supply, wages.
post Klein
Without question the H-1B issue has dropped totally off TV now that Dobbs left. Other news shows like Fox would occasionally cover H-1B just to compete with Dobbs but they obviously feel no pressure to do so now. Outsourcing news is scarce and very superficial.
We don't know if Ken Jautz will continue CNN's shift toward the leftist open borders agenda. Hopefully he can get CNN back on a more mainstream middle of the road direction.
just from the news feed on the bottom right
We can tell the press is corporate controlled and it's very clear this is a national bias. India clearly demands our jobs as some sort of "business" arrangement. We need a visual journalist/pundit like Dobbs around to help break through the continual corporate/India propaganda.
