    | Proposed regulations released in October would overhaul the H-1B
    | lottery system by basing selections on each individual beneficiary,
    | not the total number of registrations. That change would give
    | workers an equal chance of being selected in the lottery process,
    | the agency said.
    |
    | USCIS meanwhile has opened fraud investigations into alleged efforts
    | to cheat the lottery that could lead to denial of petitions or
    | referrals to law enforcement. The agency is still taking petitions
    | for visas exempt from the H-1B cap, such as those for jobs at
    | colleges and universities or research institutions.

    stopped short because Ron failed to invite the likes of Mike Emmons
    to lament that Trump failed to convert the Cheap Labor Lobby's scab
    worker import quota lottery to a wage ranked queue on Lachlan Murdoch's FoxNews.COM campaign stage?

    indicted Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, or Joe Biden for *any reason
    at all* -- doesn't matter the details -- it would have been wall-to-
    wall blaring that the country had disintegrated into apocalyptic
    Fascism" - Michael Tracey <URL:https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1666968029643587585>
