Indian Visa Migrants Lose Jobs amid Corporate, Federal Crackdowns

Hundreds of Indian and Chinese college-graduate migrants in the United States have been fired from white-collar jobs in California, Washington, DC, and elsewhere,

But the migrants are pushing back with lawyers, complaints in the Indian media, and pleas to Indian-origin members of Congress.

Some are losing their jobs at Apple and the Federal National Mortgage Association, commonly known as Fannie Mae.

More are losing jobs because the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has deleted their visas or their names from a federal database — dubbed SEVIS — that allows migrants to get work permits after enrolling in U.S. colleges. Their entries and work permits are being deleted from SEVIS because of their prior criminal activity — such as shoplifting, drunk driving, or street altercations — that was ignored by President Joe Biden’s pro-migration deputies.

In March, Citigroup announced it would sharply reduce its reliance on foreign contractors after the contractors cost the bank at least $600 million in routine operations and regulatory incompetence. The decision means Citibank will begin hiring at least 10,000 American technology professionals for jobs held by supposedly cheaper Indian workers.

All this is good news for the many American professionals who have lost jobs to the federal government’s mass inflow of mixed-skill Indian graduates. Most of the Indian migrants use their H-1B visas or university-related work permits to take roughly 1 million jobs that would otherwise go to skilled American professionals. Many of the migrants are hired for Fortune 500 jobs by ethnic networks that discriminate against Americans.

If these folks are losing their visas because of criminal behavior, I say...ABOUT DAMN TIME.  Plus, they should be immediately deported.

No one gave one sh*t when these foreigners displaced 1.6 million white collar USA citizens so that tech billionaires could make more money!!!!!

I don't think the last chapter has been written on this story, for Trump promised tech billionaires he would increase the H1-b Visas.  A lot easier just to move them over from whatever job they had.  But if this applies largely to criminals, I say deport every last one of them.

And I still hold out for the day we have a real man of the people to end the H1-b Visa Program, and restore 1.6 million Americans to white collar jobs that were stolen away by largely folks from India.  I say the federal government should invoke a 50% fee for each H1-b Visa recipient per year.  Pay a fee equal to 50% of said recipient's income.  The fee would be paid by the employers, in advance for the coming year.
