• MEDIA: For Laid-Off Tech Workers On H-1B Visas, There Aren't Enough Job

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 2 13:45:57 2022
    Forbes' Kendrick Cai on whether Donald Trump will endorse Ken Cuccinelli
    to succeed Ur M Jaddou to lead USCIS.GOV and whether Jaddou will
    provide TPS to laid off scab workers on NIVs: https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrickcai/2022/11/21/h1b-visa-holders-tech-layoffs-job-openings/>
    | Lawyers told Forbes that while many tech workers won't be able to
    | find new jobs within 60 days, creative maneuvers exist to extend
    | their stay in the country, such as switching to a visitor visa,
    | applying for an extraordinary ability green card or returning to
    | school to obtain another degree. But while an H-1B visa can be
    | directly transferred to a new employer, these backup measures could
    | cost thousands of dollars and still may not provide a guarantee to
    | stay in the country.

    Will Kellyanne Conway invite the likes of Mike Emmons onto Trump's
    Save America PAC campaign stage?
