Rosemary Jenks joins Prosperity 101 to discuss the H-1B visa program

1 month ago

What happens when companies prioritize lower cost, non-citizen workers to fill jobs previously held by American citizens? This has happened to millions of American workers in many segments of our labor force, including highly skilled STEM workers. Our complicated visa system allows for loopholes that put hard-working citizens at risk, which impacts our culture, economy, communities, and families across the nation. The H1-B visa is most discussed, but many visa types are being misused to circumvent fair wage and employment practices. Listen as Linda and Rosemary Jenks, Co-Founder and Policy Director at the Immigration Accountability Project, discuss action steps needed to protect the American worker. This issue affects every segment of our society, and is important for employers, employees, students, and retirees.
