    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 3 13:45:16 2023
    Michael Bloomberg's editors on whether Kellyanne Conway fears that
    Ron DeSantis will outflank Donald Trump from the right on the National
    Question by inviting the likes of Mike Emmons onto Ken Griffin and
    Lachlan Murdoch's campaign stump: <URL:https://www.ndtv.com/opinion/us-tech-layoffs-cruel-for-indians-on-h-1b-visas-3607045>
    | The US should take notice. As a start, President Joe Biden should
    | extend the 60-day grace period for unemployed H-1B visa holders to
    | six months, giving them a fair opportunity to find new jobs, and
    | allow their spouses to continue to work legally in the meantime.
    | Those who've applied for green cards should also maintain their
    | place in the queue, rather than having to convince a new employer to
    | sponsor them.

    Will Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell allow Ur M Jaddou and
    Alejandro Mayorkas to grant TPS to the Cheap Labor Lobby's RIF'd
    scab workers?
