Professor at the Indian -Oro Howard University says that H -1B visa has no relation with the lack of American worker

Professor Ron Heera of Howard University said that H -1B visa programs that allow American companies to rent efficient labor from outside the country have no relation with the merit or shortage of American workers for those specific jobs.Ron Heera, whose parents were Indians and came to America on a similar visa, have long been a critic of H -1B visa programs as they argued that companies misuse these programs, which misuse these programs to outsource cheap employees rather than giving work to US graduates. In 2016, he gave a testimony to the Senate on immigration and expanded that both his parents were from India and his wife is born in India. And so testifying against this visa program was personally very meaningful for him.Between the ongoing H -1B row, starting with the release of the latest H -1B data of American citizenship and immigration services, Roh Hira said that H -1B workers are chosen by a random lottery and not the best and bright. The USCIS revealed that the administration selected the 120,141 H -1B visa application for 2026, the lowest since 2021, but the US tech workers claim that the number of large -scale pruning in companies is very large.USCIS selects every year by lottery when the agency receives more H-1B electronic registration than permission. Annual H-1B limit is 65,000 and 20,000 discounts for individuals with advanced degrees from an American university.The H -1B figures for 2026 have surprised Maga, as they expected Action on H -1B from Donald Trump administration. During the major H -1B row, which included Elon Musk, supporting the Vivek Ramaswamy program, President Donald Trump said he was in favor of H -1B, although he has taken a rigorous stance on illegal immigration. Republican leader Varasil Buyerschel questioned whether the 2026 H -1B data suggests that employers have already chosen employees that they will set fire as no new jobs are being made. “This 2026 visa approval gets me. A year before the current date, he has already approved the visa. And they must have a job to have a visa. Which means that the employer has already excluded the employee who plans on firing because they are not making new jobs. How is it not fraud at all levels? “Bierschwale wrote.“A large part of the H -1B petitions is for jobs that are not present. Indian IT body shops are notorious to hoarding H -1B workers, expecting them to lease later. If there is no customer, they get” benches “, which is illegal.
