H-1B, “one of the best con jobs,” chugs along as Americans lose jobs

By Jeremy Beck

In his tour-de-force article for Compact Magazine, H-1B watchdog Professor Norman Matloff rips the cover story off of the sorded H-1B narrative history, stating plainly: “The H-1B program was deliberately set up to hire younger, cheaper foreign workers in lieu of older, more expensive Americans.”

Mission: Repair the broken promises of 2020 and 1965

By Jeremy Beck

“…the bill before you in no way significantly increases the basic numbers of immigrants to be permitted entry. We are not talking about increased immigration…”  Rep. Emmanuel “Manny” Celler (D-NY), one of the principal authors of the “Hart-Celler” Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, promising to keep immigration levels to under 300,000 per year. “The last thing we need is to say we’re … Continued

A decisive immigration election

By Jeremy Beck

The idea that immigration is a limitless, universal good was soundly rejected. Immigration was a clear difference maker in the election. We are living under a system of broken promises: promises to set limits; promises to enforce those limits. The votes are in. It’s time for Washington to meet those promises. Immigration dominated voters’ minds Exit polls almost universally indicate immigration was the number two or number one … Continued

Today’s immigration system is a broken promise

They broke that promise. And Congress has continued to break that promise every year for sixty years. “On the Ballot: An Immigration System Most … Continued

100th Anniversary of the Immigration Act of 1924

By Jeremy Beck

This Saturday marks the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Immigration Act of 1924, arguably the most overlooked and misunderstood immigration legislation in American history. As NumbersUSA’s CEO James Massa says, the 1924 Act “made the American middle class.” The Immigration Act of 1965, on the other hand, has resulted in greater inequality. Both bills had pros and cons. A better immigration policy in 2024 requires a better understanding of the Immigration Act of 1924.

An Economist Changes His Mind: Immigration Does Contribute to Inequality

By Jeremy Beck

Immigration contributes to inequality. America has a special obligation to our citizens. And America’s economy is not working for the majority of citizens today. Those are three of Sir Angus Deaton’s – recipient of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Economics – boat-rocking conclusions in his recently published article, “Rethinking My Economics,” on the International Monetary Fund’s website.
