Even better would be for Congress to pass legislation to replace the H-1B lottery with a system where visas are awarded based on employers’ willingness to pay the highest wages. NumbersUSA’s Great Solutions bill S. 2821, the American Tech Workforce Act, would do just that. Visit our Action Board to ask your Senators and Congressional Representative to co-sponsor this pro-worker legislation.
