H-1Bs are still stuck to their employers. They often sign agreements that subject them to huge fees if they quit the company before the end of the contract. It could also set back their attempts at getting a Green Card.
It makes little difference to the Americans that are systematically being replaced by H-1Bs whether they can change jobs or not.
Your statement that companies have little incentive to hire H-1Bs belittle the facts, since they are hiring them in huge numbers. The Dept. of Labor reports that the upper limit for H-1B visas to be issued may be reached in September.
Currently their are over 600,000 H-1Bs employed in the US.
Your professional career is being undermined by our own government and rich corporate lobbyists.
H-1B, one of many worker replacement visa bills, allows American companies to hire foreign temps to replace YOU. As if that wasn't bad enough, 195,000 more of these "temps" are allowed into our country every year. More than 671,000 H-1B workers will be employed in the United States in the year 2001. H-1B is used to import foreign indentured workers here to take white collar jobs that American employers claim can't be filled in the "tight American labor market". H-1B isn't the only way corporations are subverting the American way of life. H-2A and H-2B visas are being used to bring in blue collar and agricultural workers and J-1 visas are now being used by educational and governmental institutions to bring in foreign workers. TN (NAFTA) visas are used to bring in Canadian and Mexican citizens to work in the United States. To make matters worse, President Bush now wants to give millions of H-2B worker visas to allow Mexicans to work take American jobs.
H-1B was bought and paid for by Corporate America. They "donated" to our politicians' campaign funds and now they are reaping the benefits of H-1B because they have the best government money can buy. They now are pushing the Trade Promotion Authority that is a new name for Fast Track. These agreements will allow corporations to import cheap labor whenever and wherever they want.
Listed below are some of the jobs that H-1B visas are being issued for:
Accountants and Administrators
Executives, Managers, Administrators
Software programmers and computer scientists
