According Lee

It was #Discrimination & a clear case of #EmploymentSabotage. MY life, MY experience. I know what happened; I was there. There's NO Statute of Limitations on Freedom of Speech #1stAmendment. "That's some catch, that Catch-22"

@mo_shawki2 @Nonames12334 @D_rantsusa @MaryBowdenMD We wouldn’t have a shortage of doctors if we didn’t have 50 million foreign born people in this country.

@Nonames12334 @D_rantsusa @MaryBowdenMD If they find more residency then you will have more immigrants doctors , since most of American grads match in more than 90 percent of the time , they need to allow more medical schools and reduce the crazy tuition fees

It's interesting how DOs cannot call themselves MDs, but someone with a MBBS (foreign medical degree that is typically 3 years shorter than an American degree) can call themselves "MD." We need to change that.

@RckyMtnBckpckr @PoliticalStacy ew

@PoliticalStacy Such as this?

Fuck "nice." Fuck "likable." Fuck your feelings. Shoutout to every hero who still drops the raw, unfiltered truth without giving a single fuck who gets offended. Society is circling the drain and collapsing into a flaming pile of shit all around us. This isn't the time for polite bullshit or coddling weak minded retards. The most based, loving, and kind thing you can do right now is speak the brutal, ugly truth... loud, hard, and without apology. If it triggers some delicate liberal and shatters their little safe space, even better. They fucking deserve worse.

@AlbertA08530177 @PoliticalStacy The general USA citizen population has real grievances about things that have been IMPOSED on us We have the right to inform & educate each other about how, why & who has facilitated the massive fraud & abuse in both our *legal* & illegal immigration system. That is productive

@PoliticalStacy Try doing something productive instead of blaming everyone else because your not happy!

The LCA requires all employers to attest they'll pay H-1B workers the higher of the prevailing wage or actual wage to similar U.S. workers, plus equivalent benefits/conditions. This prevents adverse effects on Americans via wages. No requirement exists to attest or prove "can't find qualified Americans"—that's not on the form for any employer. Good-faith U.S. worker recruitment + no displacement of equivalent U.S. jobs (90 days before/after) applies *only* to H-1B-dependent employers (15%+ H-1B workforce for large firms) and non-exempt petitions. Amazon confirms it's not dependent; Meta & Microsoft (vast U.S. workforces) aren't either. Those attestations don't apply. High approvals reflect wage-focused review.

@Nyquist860 @JobsNowPR I don’t think that it’s been published yet. There will be a link where you can submit comments through the online portal when they publish it.

@JobsNowPR Is there a way for the public to send in comments?

Very exciting, DOL is going to raise H1B salary requirements... Until you read it and realize they are still going to give H1Bs to people making less than the average wage in their field Public comment period is open for 60 days, should we write a Jobs Now guide to commenting?

@aethyrian @JobsNowPR @USDOL Only Congress can do that.

@PressSec @NYSCivilService @stonybrooku @StonyBrookMed @KenPiorun They were transferred from within the hospital to fill Switchboard Operator positions which is a @NYSCivilService SG-6 position. They maintained their Hospital Attendant titles and SG-5 wages instead of being appointed by the *provisional* appointment. x.com/AccordingLee/s…

@PressSec @NYSCivilService @stonybrooku @StonyBrookMed @KenPiorun While I was eventually hired off of the Civil Service list, it turns out that in addition to the 5 vacant positions in Ken Piorun’s dept there were 5+ seats filled by non-competitive SG-5 Hospital Attendants that were working as Switchboard Operators w/o having to take the exam..

President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order eliminating racially discriminatory “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) practices by Federal contractors and their subcontractors, ensuring merit-based and efficient contracting and employment. whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/20…

@corysimmons123 @JobsNowPR Of course it matters. It goes in the Federal Register so it stays as a public record. Much harder for Congress to ignore public comments.

@JobsNowPR It doesn't matter what you write or do. Billionaires are paying politicians to import infinity of them

@All2getherNow @JobsNowPR Because only Congress can lower the statutory cap of 85,000 H-1Bs. Our educational & research institutions currently have NO CAP on H-1Bs. 56,207 new H-1Bs were approved for 2024 for those uncapped H-1Bs. 85,000 + 56,207 =141,207 ⬇️

@JobsNowPR Very frustrating reading this. They spend much of the proposal talking about trying to limit the displacement of American jobs, and then they admit that these PWD changes will do nothing to deter the H1B program.

@JobsNowPR @Lone_Star_Heat At the very least, Congress should lower the 85,000 cap & impose limits on the educational & research institutions which are currently UNLIMITED Our educational & research institutions exploit the graduate students for cheap labor which is why USA citizens don’t pursue that path

@Lone_Star_Heat They can’t end the visa program at DOL, Congress has to redo the laws They also can’t put new taxes in But DOL could actually make rules preventing undercutting wages and scamming LMT… So there is a lot of room for improvement in this rule

@BYLuvJedi @Danaidh4 @Jules31415 He didn’t come from overseas. He’s been living in the USA as a *refugee* since he was a child. If you go back to your home country for a *visit* during a winter break, you’re a *fake refugee* Duke has special financial aid packages for refugees or displaced persons.

@AccordingLee @Danaidh4 @Jules31415 They said he "won" the full ride, but your indicating it's charity. Still, we agree that he was here on a student visa and student visas can be canceled. Hopefully that admission slot will be now open for an American citizen.

Are we supposed to feel sorry for him? That seat—and the full scholarship—could’ve gone to an American student.

@BYLuvJedi @Danaidh4 @Jules31415 Neither scenario is based fully on merit alone. *Applicants must demonstrate high financial need and possess outstanding academic and leadership potential.*

@gene_turlington @letsgoskatepool @BuckSexton In Haiti they stir up trouble to make it *unsafe* to justify the TPS extensions and new TPS visas. *Temporary Protected Status* and they’ve been here for decades.

@AccordingLee @letsgoskatepool @BuckSexton That's the thing that makes me angry, if it isn't safe in the country you came from, why are you going back? Obvious fraud.

Where's the story about all the Americans for whom Duke was their dream school and they got shot down? America First must apply to U.S. universities too.

@letsgoskatepool @gene_turlington @BuckSexton He came here as a child *refugee* Went to USA schools. Got a *full ride* to Duke based on *financial need* Went home to Uganda during a winter break. *fake refugee*

@AccordingLee @gene_turlington @BuckSexton The value of being a United States citizen is in living in a place with limited government so that humanity can flourish. It isn’t from hand outs and special treatment.

@Danaidh4 @Jules31415 He came here as a child refugee. Enrolled in USA schools. Duke meets the financial need of all accepted students, foreign & domestic. He wouldn’t have gotten the *full ride* if he didn’t have financial need. He went home to Uganda during a winter break.

@Jules31415 "Duke University raised $573 million in fiscal year 2024 from nearly 87,000 alumni and friends" and yet they can't give a scholarship to one of "Africa's best and brightest" without taxpayer funds? Something's wrong here, but it's not government.

@letsgoskatepool @gene_turlington @BuckSexton What do you call a *full ride* scholarship that is only for international students? At a university that receives hundreds of millions in federal funding and is TAX EXEMPT?
