Kim Georgeton for Lt. Governor of Ohio

@JazzyLensing Awful.

@KimGeorgeton My office closed in 2008, I worked for CitiMorgage servicing mortgages. We were replaced by Indians in India and had to train them.

Let’s talk H1B. In March 2024, I got a call. My job was gone. So was everyone else's. Infosys didn't replace one or two of us. They replaced the whole department. Every. Single. One. Their guy chose to keep his friends employed over American workers. This isn't a story. It's a playbook. Here's what they don't tell you about H-1B abuse in Ohio: → Ohioans have lost ~$300M per H-1B worker cycle → Wages drop tens of thousands per replaced job → That money doesn't pay Ohio rent. Doesn't hit Ohio restaurants. Doesn't pay Ohio taxes. It leaves. Infosys paid $34M settling federal fraud charges for exactly this. Now Vivek Ramaswamy wants to be Ohio's governor. The same man whose company used H-1B visas 29 times. The same man who told Americans we "venerate mediocrity over excellence." He got fired from DOGE partly for saying that. He says he wants to reform H-1B now. His record says otherwise. I'm running for Lt. governor because I know what it feels like. To be told your job, your team, your livelihood just doesn't matter. Ohio workers matter. Ohio paychecks should stay in Ohio. We will solve this. Share this. 🗳️ Vote @CaseyPutsch — May 5 📋 Register by April 6

@PhillyJoeD What’s more familiar? Scam artists who already run government — recruiting more of their “own” to continue scamming the masses.

@KimGeorgeton That's familiar, people who couldn't get a job in the private sector looking to the government as employer of last resort

@PhillyJoeD @EagleYear1776 @Infosys

@EagleYear1776 @KimGeorgeton @Infosys Infosys has cut way back on H-1b's, from 20,000/year in the late 2010s to more like 5,000/year lately. Company share price has skidded, too. inquirer.com/business/vangu…

@RobHogan400 @PlumbNick Facts are hard for some to understand.

@PlumbNick @KimGeorgeton Classic BS fearmongering from the fake Putsch campaign

Kudos to @KimGeorgeton for standing up and fighting for the American worker.

@dowehave2_tx @Sarachin2019 Yes they sell their deals on lowest price . Always undercutting.

@KimGeorgeton @Sarachin2019 Yet corporations continue to sign contracts with infosys, Deloitte, TCS 🤦🏻‍♀️

@BTT1024 @lucystone1871 Accurate and well explained.

x.com/BTT1024/status… Casey Putsch is not a Loon. He has the heart of a person wanting to make things better for others - Read in the linked post about "Genius Garage" that he started to educate young Americans about car design/engineering while also learning about work ethic and the fulfillment of taking ideas through all stages to a finished product. [Autoweek (Dec 29, 2020) - "The Genius Garage Is a Place Where Students Learn by Doing - Casey Putsch created it to take what you learn in school to the real world." link in attached post] He has a desire to share with others. He has an Anger about the way our country (and the state of Ohio) has been allowed to decline significantly at the hands of the Globalist Elites. Many of us share that same Anger, which sometimes comes out appearing to be "loony" - But, if you really take into consideration all of what the Globalist Elite have done to this country, the "loony" behavior is really not that "loony" at all. What is truly "loony" is the behavior of the Globalist Elites (politicians, CEOs, corporations, media).

I’m in the unenviable position of thinking that Kim Georgeton is a boss, but being unable to vote for her because her running mate is a LOON.

@kicker114 We are an occupied nation. Everyone wants a piece.

@KimGeorgeton I don't understand why we haven't put an end to this program

@Activist4Sanity There are people in every family this has impacted. We must change this so Ohio can be prosperous.

@KimGeorgeton Thank you for pointing this out!!! We are losing our middle class due to this! Many of my colleagues in IT have been unemployed for months due to H1Bs!!

@lsferguson Yes.

This is why the H-1B visa program must be ended.

@vvirga This is important!

Daniel, When calculating the value or impact of skilled immigration on the economy, GDP, national debt, etc. …Shouldn’t the cost of ALL trade offs be considered? For example, where do I enter the number of Americans who were replaced in their job by a cheaper imported foreign worker? And what those unemployed workers have cost us in social services? (Not to mention what it’s cost them & their families & their dignity) Where do I enter in the total dollar amount of US STEM workers’ wages that have been suppressed as a result of the mass importation of foreign white collar visa workers? Where do I enter the costs of what will happen when our US grads can’t pay back the $1.7 trillion in student loans because they are being locked out of the entry level job market by 240,000 OPT Visa workers every year? Where do we add in the 15% FICA taxes that aren’t being paid for & by those same entry level OPT workers? Can we add in a number that calculates the dollar value of the disappointment that 40% + of US STEM grads are experiencing because they are underemployed or out of work? And then add in the real societal costs of long term unemployment (drug abuse, divorce, etc) I could go on. Without considering any of these real world trade offs associated with the mass importation of foreign white collar workers, you can’t be taken seriously. Sorry to say, but this is totally bogus Big Visa propaganda bought & paid for by big biz.

@KanubeSupport I’m sorry!

same story for me - I was a manager at US Bank and there were meetings I was in that an upper C-level exec was ranting about how we MUST have an 80/20 mix of 80% offshore (India) and 20% onshore. theses C-level execs get flown to India to be wined and dined, and then over the years, guess what happens? Almost the entire tech stack (~10k workers) are H1B or overseas. They come in as contractors, move onshore, get perms jobs and green cards, then become managers and then hire their own staff - of H1Bs and offshore. these banks handle our private information and bank accounts and they are exposed and at risk.

@Anndyren3878 Everywhere.

@EagleYear1776 @Infosys Good detail!

@KimGeorgeton @Infosys US Revenue ~$12B in FY24. Infosys Indian workforce:290,000. H-1B Indian Employees: 12K out of US workforce of 25K. Infosys had 2634 NEW H-1B approvals in FY 25. No record on OPT/CPT/H4-EAD. Infosys Green Card last 5yrs *4285. 30 PIECES OF SILVER and A BOWL OF PORRIDGE.

@freeadvent86806 It’s not right.

@KimGeorgeton I work in big tech and for the last 10 years, my floor has become more concentrated in H-1Bs as the company lays off Americans. Every round, more H-1Bs and OPTs.

@slmimorgan @PlumbNick You’re welcome. We will solve this.

@PlumbNick @KimGeorgeton Oh my gosh, I LOVE HER! Thank you, @KimGeorgeton !! Thank you for sharing, @PlumbNick

@slmimorgan @PlumbNick I will always stand for what is right!

@alexleestine303 Yes and they send a chunk of their earnings back to India, so we don’t get revenue or sales taxes on that “lost”money.

@KimGeorgeton Immigrants do pay taxes, but issue is, they ain't paying anywhere near what I pay because I don't just move on after I've taken advantage of benefits for 3 years. Benefits including public schools, hospitals, etc. Different situation for GC holders, but still want that limited.

@KomamaTra Terrible.

@KimGeorgeton Infosys is very active with ford and GM replacing the American workers in hundreds if not thousands

@svika25 This will stop with our administration.

@KimGeorgeton I work for DOT, they hire Indians and muslim engineers with visas instead of hiring American citizens. They also give promotions to Indians or Muslims with visas over American citizens. Students that graduatited with BS in Civil Engineering have no chances of getting a job.
