| A more effective stick for noncompliance with diversity requirements

| visas. But proposed fixes to the H-1B visa program, such as
| preventing companies from giving preference to visa holders, might
| be a more realistic starting point. This is an important objective
| of a bill reintroduced by Senators Dick Durbin and Chuck Grassley in
| March. The Congressional Progressive Caucus, meanwhile, has included
| among its recommendations for executive action a proposal to
| increase H-1B wage requirements to reflect "true market rates" and
| prioritize employers "seeking highly skilled workers and paying fair
| wages." The Biden administration appears to be on board -- and given
| the degree of congressional paralysis, some argue executive action
| would be the most expedient route to meaningful reform.
