Everyone is focused on whether companies laying off Americans can bring in NEW H-1B workers.
But I think there’s a much bigger question buried in Trump’s new executive order:
What happens to H-1B RENEWALS at companies that conducted layoffs?
I went back and read the actual order.
It doesn’t just mention new visas.
It directs the government to consider whether an employer conducted layoffs during the previous year when reviewing:
“any labor condition application, petition, visa, and entry”
That appears broad enough to reach H-1B extension petitions too.
Important distinction: the order does NOT say a company that laid off Americans is automatically barred from renewing an H-1B.
But those layoffs must now be taken into account.
Think about how many large technology companies simultaneously have:
Thousands of H-1B employees.
Ongoing H-1B renewals.
And recent American layoffs.
The renewal issue could ultimately be much bigger than the new-hire issue.

🚨 BREAKING: THIS IS HUGE. THE WHITE HOUSE JUST PUT AMERICAN LAYOFFS DIRECTLY INTO THE H-1B REVIEW PROCESS.
President Trump signed a new executive order TODAY.
Federal agencies are now directed to consider whether an H-1B sponsoring employer:
Laid off similarly situated American workers during the previous year
OR
Plans to lay them off in the future.
And there’s more.
The Labor Department has 30 DAYS to begin reviewing previously submitted H-1B Labor Condition Applications to determine whether action against sponsoring employers is warranted.
Think about the implications.
A company lays off thousands of American tech workers.
Then turns around and says it needs H-1B workers.
The government is now explicitly being told:
LOOK AT THE LAYOFFS.
This is exactly the question companies should have been forced to answer all along.

Woman with freshly done hair and nails, thick fake eyelashes, and a cheap knockoff Louis Vuitton bag is standing at a Chinese takeout counter, shocked that they wouldn’t allow her to pay with her EBT card.
Half of these people don’t even belong in the food stamp program.

Why are there 240,000 Muslims in Michigan
To some of the roughly 240,000 Muslims in Michigan, attacks aimed at Democrat Abdul El-Sayed have brought back painful memories for some in a contest that has raised questions about the acceptability of Islamophobia in politics. wapo.st/4ri1Ays
Why did you delete your post calling for "consequences" for people pulling their kids out of failing government schools, @DominiqueJL15?

“You just don’t want them because they won’t vote for your side!”
Yes! That’s a really important thing! How we decide what our government should look like is of the utmost importance. If everyone invited gets a say I don’t want to invite people who disagree with me. Who would?
You can imagine an immigration debate that didn’t have the voting dimension, but the voting dimension just completely deranges things. We’re importing people who 2-1 have an entirely different vision of the country than I do. And your response to me is that I should welcome them and get to work trying to convince them to have different politics?
This of course makes absolutely no sense. It’s obviously ludicrous.

I don't know if I was the only one, but as a kid, I thought that Jews were like 40% of the population because every kids' show seemed to have some sort episode celebrating a Jewish holiday.

This, by the way, is how the Left will ban homeschooling.
They won’t draft a piece of legislation that says “homeschooling is illegal” they will just create a world where you can’t get a job or go to college if you are homeschooled.
They will force parents’ hands.
🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a 22-year-old who runs into BURNING BUILDINGS as a volunteer firefighter was told he isn't qualified to be a paid firefighter...
...because he was HOMESCHOOLED.
Then the city changed the job posting to cover it up.
His name is Andrew Coates. He's 22 years old, in Nebraska.
Right now, today, he runs into burning buildings as a volunteer firefighter for Cedar Bluffs Fire. He is a state-licensed EMT.
He is doing the job. For free.
All he wanted was to get PAID to do it. In his words: "Make a career out of it would be the goal. To get paid to do what you love."
So he applied to the Fremont Fire Department.
And in April, the city rejected him. Why?
Because his high school diploma says he was homeschooled.
That's it. That's the whole disqualification.
Not his EMT license.
Not his fitness.
Not his record.
Not his experience pulling people out of fires ALREADY!!
...how he was educated.
The job posting he applied to said "graduation from high school."
That's all it said.
He graduated high school.
He has a diploma.
And AFTER they rejected him, the city went back and added the word "accredited" to the job description.
His own fire chief, the man who has watched Andrew work, showed up to defend him:
"I feel the city of Fremont is really missing out here, and in my mind, because of his homeschooling, you guys are discriminating against him."
Over THIRTY homeschool families showed up to stand behind this kid.
And the Civil Service Commission? They said it isn't their job to touch city policy.
Homeschoolers are literally a generation of kids who read ABOVE grade level, who work with their HANDS, who volunteer in their communities, who show up for their neighbors.
And this young man is the proof.
At 22, he's a certified EMT and a volunteer firefighter, while plenty of his peers are on a couch.
When your house is on fire at 3 a.m., I promise you will not ask the man dragging your children out where he went to high school.
You will not ask if his diploma was accredited.
You will thank GOD he came.
Andrew isn't even fighting for himself anymore. His words:
"I think now it's turned into we want to make sure that every homeschooler has an equal opportunity."
That's a better man than the policy that rejected him.
Fremont, you have a licensed EMT and an active firefighter begging to serve your city. And you turned him down over paperwork, then rewrote the paperwork to cover it.
Fix this.
Hire him!!!!!!!

It's remarkable how many hundreds if not thousands of cases like this we've forgotten or simply never heard of. Examples can be found going back right to the first boat that disgorged non-European migrants on British shores.

We are a “nation.”
We have borders.
We allow immigrants to enter who seek permission.
Immigration is for the benefit of citizens, not immigrants.
The benefit to them is incidental - not the reason.

The GOP is a clown show but if the Dems gain power they will simply end all immigration enforcement and the country will be over

“No Americans need apply” - one of the largest American banks, for a job in New York City.
Hello @jpmorgan this recruiter that you work with posted a "No Americans Need Apply" ad naming your bank and that you have a need for a "Java Full Stack Developer - Agentic AI" to work onsite in NYC.
And your fella holds quite a number of other shell companies all sharing the same phone number and no NYC address.
Heh. "local"

🚨 WTF!? Denver socialist candidate for mayor Shontel Lewis that her STEALING thousands in public food stamps QUALIFIES her to serve as mayor
"I actually think that experience is what actually QUALIFIES me...I did something silly."
You literally can't make this up — she says stealing from the taxpayer QUALIFIES her for mayor
At least she's being honest, THAT'S WHAT SOCIALISTS DO for a LIVING 💀
This is actually a disqualification. We have enough fraud in America, especially in food stamps!
