Senator Pushes For Tougher H-1B Enforcement

mk1004 writes "Computerworld says that the industry lobbying group TechNet is calling on Congress to eliminate the per-country cap on H-1B workers. Last year a bill was passed in the house, 389-to-15, to remove the cap. Grassley put a hold on the bill in the Senate, indicating that he would be willing to lift the cap if companies faced an annual audit. The US currently allows 140K H-1B workers, but allows only 7% of those to come from any one country."

Re:Would this apply to UK citizens ?

If you're going to leave screwed up UK, why would you pick the US of all places!?

I heard you have greener grass over there.

Re:We need this for politicians too!

Instead of fighting against this trend I've decided it should be applied to politicians as well. Bring in some real talent where leadership is concerned and allow these H1-B Visa holders to run our country as well, why not?

Already been done.

At least that's what Donald Trump says.
