H-1B's evil twins are the H-2A and H-2B visas.


Secret deal quadruples foreign workers in U.S.
Borrows from Rubio's 'Gang of Eight' bill to flood blue-collar job market

Buried in the 2,000-page omnibus spending bill released by the Senate Wednesday morning is a secret provision that many senators hope unemployed blue-collar workers won’t find out about.

This provision would quadruple the number of H-2B visas for low-skilled foreign “guest workers.” It would allow more than a quarter-of-a-million foreign workers to enter the U.S. each year and work in the construction industry, hotel-motel services, truck drivers, food processing, forestry and many other fields that don’t require a college education.

A vote on the spending bill is expected late Thursday night, possibly after midnight, sources on the Hill told WND.

The bill also includes funding for all of President Obama’s foreign refugee resettlement program and does nothing to stop the proliferation of so-called “sanctuary cities.”

Legal immigration is already at an all-time high, with 1.1 million foreign-born persons coming to the U.S. every year, and a recent Pew Research poll shows 83 percent of the voting public wishes to see the level of immigration frozen or reduced.

House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., reportedly helped negotiate the omnibus deal. The spending bill also includes full funding for President Obama’s refugee resettlement program, which will cost $1.6 billion and bring in another 85,000 refugees this year, many of them from jihadist hotbeds like Syria, Somalia, Iraq and Afghanistan.

The timing of the bill comes as a record number of blue-collar American workers can’t find a job at all, said Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.

“At a time when the civilian labor force participation rate in the U.S. is approximately 62.4%, now is not the time to advance legislation further depressing wages and employment for U.S. workers,” Sessions said in a letter to the chairs of the Senate appropriations committee.

But this is not the first time Congress has tried to include such a dramatic infusion of foreign labor into the lower rung of the U.S. job market.

The Gang of Eight bill in 2013, co-sponsored by Sen. Marco Rubio, also increased the controversial H-2B visa that brings in foreign workers to fill jobs as construction workers, restaurant employees, hotel maids and industrial workers.

In just the case of construction, there are six unemployed construction workers for each job opening, according to a study by the Economic Policy Institute. Yet the omnibus released around 2 a.m, Wednesday, would as much as quadruple the H-2B visa in an unadvertised provision secreted into the more than 2,000-page bill.
