| Rampant job cuts across the tech industry in recent months have sent
| foreign workers into frantic hunts for new employment. Since late
| 2022, Amazon, Microsoft, and Facebook-parent Meta have all slashed
| thousands of jobs in a bid to cut costs.
|
| In the first few weeks of 2023 alone, at least 174 tech companies
| have culled close to 60,000 jobs. Among the casualties are foreign
| workers on H-1B visas, which allow them to work for U.S.-based
| employers for three years at first, with an option for an extension.
Will Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell allow Ur M Jaddou to grant
TPS to Sundar Pichai's RIFd scab workers?

"Cheney also did not make a principled stand against Trump. She made
a poor political calculation that Trump was finished and her vote
would benefit among the party. She was gravely mistaken. Her
arrogance led her to believe she could still win in WY because of
her last name." - Scott Greer <URL:
