<<<<< JOB DESTRUCTION NEWSLETTER No. 1977 -- 2/09/2009 >>>>>

The last several days haven't been good for those of us that want to insure that the Stimulus bill money only go to American workers. Last week President Obama warned that buying American would be a mistake, and the Senate showed that they agreed with him by rejecting an amendment that would require that American labor would be considered before using offshored sources. "Provisions that are going to be a violation of World Trade Organization agreements or in other ways signal protectionism - I think that would be a mistake right now," he said. "That is a potential source of trade wars that we can’t afford at a time when trade is sinking all across the globe." -- President Barack Obama Today the Senate rejected a heroic attempt by Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) to offer an amendment to the Stimulus Bill that would include E-Verify, which passed the House. Sessions tried to put e-verify in the Stimulus bill to prevent contractors from using illegal aliens instead of Americans. Getting e-verify in the Stimulus bill was necessary because Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said she strongly supports using E-Verify to confirm employees' identities, and then promptly blocked it from being implemented on a national level. About the only thing Americans had left was Amendment S306 by Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Charles Grassley (R-IO). S306 would prevent banks who are getting TARP bailout money from hiring H-1Bs for a year. Late last week S302 was watered down to the point it's essentially meaningless -- so now we have nothing to protect American workers. The watering down occurred no less than about 24-48 hours after AILA issued their negative press release (see previous newsletter). Apparently AILA called out their emergency response team to lobby the Senate and they got the dirty job done. Ron Hira was probably being generous when he made this statement: "These are hardly onerous expectations," notes Ron Hira, professor of public policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology and an expert on H-1B visas. Hira says the provision would a ffect about 1,000 jobs. In order to understand how S306 was gutted, the older version as originally proposed to the Senate is included below as well as the modified version. S306 was amended by a voice vote so we will probably never know who participated in this ritual, but remember many of the harmful H-1B modifications have been done in the same sneaky manner. At first glance the modified bill seems to an improvement because the Sunset provision was increased from 1 to 2 years. The real damage to S306 is more subtle and difficult to catch unless you know what to look for. Fortunately I will share my incredible insight and wisdom with all of you! In the original amendment the banks were restricted from hiring H-1Bs with this clause (warning reading this stuff can cause dizziness): IN GENERAL.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, it shall be unlawful for any recipient of funding under title I of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-343) or section 13 of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 342 et seq.) to hire any nonimmigrant described in section 101(a)(15)(h)(i)(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(h)(i)(b)). [modified bill text goes here -- keep reading for explanation] The confusing verbiage does nothing more than to say that banks who receive TARP bailout money will not be allowed to hire H-1Bs. The pertinent clauses from 8 U.S. C. are included below if you are curious enough to read the law. It's actually something that all of you should spend the time to do, especially since only the important excerpts are included. The modified bill contains this obscure looking clause tacked onto the paragraph above: unless the recipient is in compliance with the requirements for an H -1B dependent employer (as defined in section 212(n)(3) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(n)(3))), except that the second sentence of section 212(n)(1)(E)(ii) of such Act shall not apply. In this case "unless" is a mighty big word! "Unless" essentially let's banks off the hook for hiring H-1Bs by appearing to be restrictive by making banks that recieve TARP money to be "H-1B dependent". It does nothing more than requiring banks to jump a few more hoops to hire an H-1B. For banks, hiring an H-1B will be slightly easier than sponsoring a foreigner for a green card, which isn't very difficult at all! The few companies in the U.S. that are H-1B dependent manage to hire all the H-1Bs they want until the yearly cap has been met. H-1B dependency is a legal term that is used to describe companies that have more than 15% of their employees on H-1B visas. Since the number is calculated on total employees, and most people who work at banks are clerks, tellers, and other occupations that aren't typically H-1Bs, there probably isn't a single bank in the USA that is H-1B depe ndent. Normally these banks wouldn't be H-1B dependent even if 100% of their computer/IT department were H-1Bs. On the surface it seems that S306 is really putting it to the banks by declaring them to be H-1B dependent, but in reality it's almost a free pass to hire more H-1Bs. The H-1B dependency clause is nothing but a big loophole. You can read more about it by going to this webpage. The legal definition of dependency is included below the commentary. http://www.jobdestruction.info/ShameH1B/H1BLegal.htm "Legality of Replacing Americans With H-1Bs, A Study of What the Law Says" As Norman Matloff recently explained, this amendment is to H-1B what the salary cap is to bank CEOs. It's purely symbolic but at least it implicitly says that H-1B is used to displace American workers. Matloff went further to explain the significance of Amendment S306: In DC circles, this [S306] is called a "marker," which is legislation that, while not solving a problem is a symbolic step in eventual solution. Although it's clear that the lobbyists were powerful enough to limit the damage, I'm sure they are not happy at all that a marker was established. Personally I doubt S306 will get past the conference stage where the House and Senate iron out their differences, but it is a symbolic win. It's too bad that unemployed people can't pay their bills with symbo lic jobs. I included an article at the end by David Sirota who is a big time political journalist that writes for among others, the New York Times. Sirota totally confuses the "Buy American" bill with S306. It's understandable that a lot of people would be confused, but David Sirota? Sheesh! Even immigration experts got snookered, so apparently S306 as modified is an effective smokescreen. Read the last article to see the overly optimistic summary of this episode by FAIR. Since the FAIR commentary referred to the modified version of S306 they might not have known what H-1B dependency means. Sheesh!

Yes. By Jimmy Orr | 02.08.09 Sometimes you can’t get a song out of your head, no matter how hard you try. The theme to "Welcome Back Kotter" is a perfect and terrifying example. With the "Buy American" provisions being debated in the economic stimulus bill, the Oak Ridge Boys’s "American Made" might just have that effect on you - be you unfortunate enough to know the song. Regardless, it has turned out to be one of the few controversial things in the package (the provision, not the band). Controversy Maybe it’s more than a few. There’s always the price tag. Some people think $1 trillion isn’t nearly high enough. And others claim that there needs to be much more government intervention in order for it to work. There are even some who think it’s too expensive and too government heavy! In or out? But overlooking these details, when asked this morning if President Obama wanted the "Buy American" provision dropped from the package, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood responded with a definitively firm non-answer. "I think there is going to be a lot of discussion about the Buy American provision in the conference," LaHood said. "And I think you’re going to see the president weigh in on this. And I haven’t talked to the president directly about it, but.. "Is that an in or an out?" CNN host John King questioned. "I think there is going to be a lot of discussion about it, John," he said, providing insight to the lack of clarity he wished to divulge. Concerns The folks at Caterpillar, headquartered in Peoria (part of LaHood’s former congressional district), don’t like it. "Our position is that, while ‘Buy American’ may sound good, in fact we’re very concerned that if this sti mulus legislation contains the ‘Buy American’ provision, other nations and regions of the world would follow our lead and pass similar provisions," spokesman Jim Dugan told the Indianapolis Star. Obama That’s what President Obama seemed to say as well when speaking to ABC’s Charlie Gibson earlier this week. "Provisions that are going to be a violation of World Trade Organization agreements or in other ways signal protectionism - I think that would be a mistake right now," he said. "That is a potential source of trade wars that we can’t afford at a time when trade is sinking all across the globe." So while it would appear that he’s leaning in this direction, anything can happen in the next few days. What are economists saying about it?

The U.S. Senate voted on Feb. 6 to put stricter limits on banks and other recipients of taxpayer money through the Troubled Assets Relief Program, or TARP, that want to hire high-skilled workers from overseas under the H-1B visa program. The Senate approved the measure -- introduced by Senators Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) and Bernie Sanders (Independent-Vermont) -- by voice vote as an amendment the economic stimulus package President Barack is urging the Senate to pass. The vote came the same day that the government announced that that 598,000 U.S. jobs were lost in January, the biggest one-month drop in 34 years. The unemployment rate reached a 16-year high of 7.6%. The amendment that passed isn’t as tough as the one Grassley proposed on Feb. 5, which would have prohibited firms from hiring H-1Bs altogether. The modified amendment instead makes TARP recipients jump through extra hoops before they can hire those foreign workers. Specifically, it subjects recipients of TARP funds to the same rules so-called H-1B dependent employers must follow. (An H-1B dependent employer is one whose workers brought in with that visa comprise 15% or more of the employer's total workforce.) These rules include: 1. The employer can’t displace any similarly employed U.S. worker with an H-1B hire within 90 days before or after applying for H-1B status or an extension of status. 2. The employer can’t place any H-1B worker at the worksite of another employer -- meaning it can’t outsource a worker for a client -- unless that employer first makes a "bona fide" inquiry as to whether the other employer has displaced or will displace a U.S. worker within 90 days before or after the placement of the H-1B worker. 3. The employer has to take good-faith steps to recruit U.S. workers for the job opening, at wages at least equal to those offered to the H-1B worker. The employer must offer the job to any U.S. worker who applies and is equally or better qualified than the H-1B worker. "These are hardly onerous expectations," notes Ron Hira, professor of public policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology and an expert on H-1B visas. Hira says the provision would affect about 1,000 jobs. The amendment falls short of preventing large banks from using H-1Bs brought into the U.S. by outsourcing firms like India-based Infosys (INFY), Wipro (WIT), and Tata, which are among the top recipients of petitions for the H-1B visa program. "Most of the H-1B use, and abuse, happens through relationships banks have with outsourcing firms," says Hira. "I don’t think [the amendment] restricts them from working w those firms." In other words, a bank could still legally force a laid-off American employee to train a replacement worker who is on an H-1B visa. A related provision was passed in the U.S. House on Jan. 21 as an amendment to a bill that passed to reform TARP. That measure, introduced by U.S. Representative Sue Myrick (R-N. Carolina), prohibits TARP recipients from outsourcing call-center work to foreign companies. The bill has not yet been taken up by the Senate. Rising unemployment is leading to more scrutiny of the H-1B visa program and its effects. On Feb. 1 an Associated Press story said that the dozen banks now receiving the biggest TARP rescue packages, totaling more than $150 billion, requested visas for more than 21,800 foreign workers over the past six years for positions such as senior vice presidents, corporate lawyers, junior investment analysts and human resources specialists. And in my story earlier this week, I wrote about the controversy surrounding Microsoft’s efforts to lift caps on the number of H-1B worker visas while it eliminates 5,000 jobs. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.onenewsnow.com/Politics/Default.aspx?id=412006 Stimulus-created jobs...for illegals Chad Groening - OneNewsNow - 2/9/2009 7:00:00 AM Will the jobs that supposedly will be created by the economic stimulus legislation go to Americans? Maybe, and maybe not. It is absolutely wrong, says immigration reform activist Susan Tully, for the U.S. Senate to omit an important section of the House stimulus bill that prevents illegal immigrants from obtaining any jobs created by the legislation. The House-passed stimulus package -- the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (H.R. 1) -- contains specific language requiring that all contractors receiving funds under the bill use the federal E-Verify system to find out=0 D if workers are either U.S. citizens or legal immigrants authorized to work. But Tully, with the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), says the Senate stimulus bill deliberately omits the E-Verify provision. "We were actually told by a reporter who called our office to get our comments on this that...the U.S. Chamber of Commerce did a deal behind the doors with the Senate to get that language removed using E-Verify for the stimulus bill," she states. Tully is convinced that greedy U.S. business interests are behind the country's current financial mess. He accuses those interests of corruption and knowingly using illegal labor as a cheap way to help keep businesses afloat. "No! This is the whole mentality that has got us into this predicament to begin with," says the immigration reformer. "And I have no hope based on what I've seen Washington do that they are going to get this right." Tully says that according to a study recently done by Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation, if the Senate stimulus bill becomes law without the E-Verify provision, 300,000 jobs created by the bill would go to those who are in the country illegally. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.rightsidenews.com/200901313509/border-and-sovereignty/how-to-kill -e-verify-without-anyone-noticing.html How to Kill E-Verify Without Anyone Noticing February201, 2009 www.americanpatrol.com/ Globalist and the Reconquista Dilemma Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- January 30 Lou Dobbs: Tonight big business, socio ethnocentric special interest groups, combining, trying to destroy the most effective government program against illegal immigration.

But in one of the Bush administration's final acts, the rule was delayed until February because of a U.S. Chamber of Commerce lawsuit. Now, one of the Obama administration's first acts is to delay E-Verify even further, until late May, to review the program. The Homeland Security Department called it a proven tool seven months ago. Janet Napolitano, DHS: I think the only reason for the delay is to make sure that everything is properly implemented. This is a big system to implement across the country.

Now, the Senate has passed a bipartisan amendment to crack down on this rip-off scheme. Here's a press release from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), one of the authors of the amendment: WASHINGTON, February 6 -- As unemployment rose and the worst recession since the Great Depression worsened, the Senate today voted to prohibit banks that take taxpayer bailout funds from replacing laid off workers with foreign guest workers...Legislation by Senators Sanders (I-Vt.) and Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) would require bailed-out banks where there have been layoffs to hire only Americans for two years. On a voice vote, the Senate added the Sanders-Grassley Amendment to an economic recovery bill. It remains to be seen whether this amendment remains in the final stimulus bill, but the fact that no senator was willing to stand up and oppose it is a good sign. Couple this with the strong vote in support of Buy America provisions [2] in the stimulus, and the Financial Times [1] is right - progressives pushing for a radically altered trade, globalization20and international economic policy are starting to win. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.fairus.org/site/News2?page=NewsArticle&id=19829&security=16 01&news_iv_ctrl=1721#1 FAIR Legislative Update 02-09-09 Senators Amend Stimulus Bill to Ensure TARP Recipients Hire U.S. Workers First Last week, Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Charles Grassley (R-IA) offered an amendment to the economic stimulus package that will require any recipient of funds from last year's $700 billion federal bailout of the financial services sector to meet certain hiring standards before they are allowed to hire H-1B workers. Last week, the Senate adopted the "Employ American Workers Act" offered by Senators Sanders and Grassley, which would prevent entities that received funds from the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) from displacing U.S. citizen workers, and was adopted by voice vote. (Congressional Record: Page S1669, February 5, 2009; Congressional Record: Page S1803, February 6, 2009; Daily Digest: Page 1, February 6, 2009) The amendment's adoption came one week after the Associated Press released a report revealing that "the dozen banks now receiving the biggest rescue packages, totaling more than $150 billion, requested visas for more than 21,800 foreign workers over the past six years." (Associated Press, February 1, 2009; also see FAIR's Legislative Update, February 3, 20 09). According to the AP report, those banks that received billions in taxpayer bailouts sought to import foreign workers to fill positions that paid an average salary of nearly $91,000 annually, including high-level executives, lawyers, junior investment analysts and human resources specialists. (Id.). In remarks on the Senate floor, Senator Sanders noted that he "firmly believe[s] that companies going through layoffs that employ H-1B [workers] have a moral obligation to protect American workers by putting them first during these difficult times." (Computerworld, February 5, 2009). Senator Grassley commented on the amendment in a press release: "Hiring American workers -- should be a top priority for businesses taking taxpayer money through the TARP program." Grassley added that "there is no need for companies to hire foreign workers through the H-1B program when there are plenty of qualified Americans looking for jobs." (Senator Grassley's Press Release, February 5, 2009). Senator Grassley has been a leader in efforts to reform the H-1B visa program. When Microsoft announced two weeks ago that it would be cutting 5,000 jobs, Grassley wrote the company and urged them to lay off H-1B workers before laying off American citizens. (See FAIR's Legislative Update, February 3, 2009). Furthermore, Grassley cosponsored H-1B reform legislation in 2007 with Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) that "would give priority to American workers and crack down on unscrupulous employers who deprive qualif ied Americans of high-skill jobs." (Senator Grassley's Press Release, January 23, 2009). Grassley has also lamented an internal report released by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in September 2008 that revealed high levels of fraud and technical violations within the H-1B program.
