LifeZette: The Washington-based Center for Immigration Studies on Wednesday produced a map showing the location of companies that make heavy use of foreign guest workers.
Clusters in majors cities of swing states like Florida and North Carolina could prove a factor on Election Day Tuesday.
The map uses Department of Labor statistics to show the location of companies that hire large numbers of workers on H-1B visas, which allow businesses to bring in foreigners for at least three years. The practice — spotlighted at companies like Disney using the visas to lay off American workers — has generated major controversy.
One ingredient is missing, though — high-level attention from the candidates.
“The H-1B program has not been much discussed in the election,” said David North, a fellow at the think tank who analyzed the data. “Both candidates in one way or the other have been known to favor the H-1B — [Democrat Hillary] Clinton as a matter of policy and [Republican Donald] Trump by his use of the program.” MORE
Looks like we have the measles. Or a bad rash.
Oh, so now they are called “foreign guest workers”.
I’m thinking of moving. Idaho, North Dakota and Wyoming look nice……
