• MEDIA: Biden's Commerce Sec. Spurns U.S. Chamber's Demand for Foreign W

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jun 15 11:26:57 2021
    Breitbart Immigration's Neil Munro on whether Joe Biden and Kamala
    Harris will have a more pro-American cabinet than Donald Trump: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/06/03/bidens-commerce-sec-spurns-u-s-chambers-demand-for-foreign-workers/>
    | The Raimondo interview came after chamber officials invited member
    | executives to demand a federal "Operation Warp Speed" to double the
    | population of roughly two million cheap and compliant visa workers
    | who now hold Americans' jobs. This demand for foreign labor comes as
    | the chambers' employers are forced to raise wages to compete for
    | willing American workers in a tight labor market.
    |
    | Since 2018, the lower-migration wage pressure has been a growing
    | shock to many executives -- especially in the food sector -- who had
    | become accustomed to a bubble of cheap imported labor after
    | President George H. Bush signed the 1990 immigration expansion law

    Did Bill Stepien advise Trump to be Americans First on the National
    Question?

    "Ironically, outlets like the NYT picked up on the atavistic
    tendencies of some first generation immigrants as the reason for
    their Trump support--a point I also made. "Latino men support Trump
    because there is a lot of patriarchal notions in Latino culture"--
    uh, yeah 11/" - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1367211286602391556>

    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Neil Munro
    on whether Donald Trump regrets taking Jared Kushner's advice to
    downplay the National Question on the campaign trail against Joe Biden
    and Kamala Harris: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/06/03/bidens-commerce-sec-spurns-u-s-chambers-demand-for-foreign-workers/>
    | Once the Rainmondo interview ended, Clark ignored the rejection and
    | repeated the chamber's demand for more foreign workers:
    |
    || The world's best and brightest who want to pour their talent and
    || energy into our economy should have every opportunity to do so,
    || which is why the Chamber will continue to lead the charge for
    || doubling employment-based immigration, including H-1B [mid-skill]
    || and H-2B [labor] visas ...
    ||
    || Whether it's writing a letter, sending an email, or making a
    || call to your elected officials urging legislative action, you can
    || directly lobby your members of Congress or state leaders or
    || implementers, [to] support some of the ideas and initiatives discuss
    || today in your own communities.
    |
    | The Raimondo statement makes her a possible opponent of the American
    | replacement policies favored by Alejandro Mayorkas, Biden's
    | secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.
    |
    | His department was intended to guard the nation's borders, but he is
    | inviting a mass of job-seeking migrants to enter the U.S. workplaces
    | via the many small doors in immigration law that were designed for
    | low numbers of asylum seekers, parole recipients, victimized
    | children, crime victims, or people stranded by homeland disasters.

    Munro ran out of column inches to identify any pro-American members of
    Biden's cabinet (Marty Walsh?).

    Caesar after November never really recovered from that so instead of
    doing anything constructive, it's all about fighting over who is the
    most based and trad online personality... to save the West, right?"
