4. H1B badly needs more oversight
Tue Jun 9, 2026, 03:52 PM

There are some sectors where we need more workers like healthcare, and there are others like tech where it's being used by companies to avoid hiring American workers, and to treat H1B workers badly while paying them a slave wage. US grads are not able to find entry level jobs, and that's a problem. AI is causing it, too, but when we are losing so many tech jobs to AI and people are out of work, we certainly don't need to have any H1B positions in tech until there is a major course correction.
