Commerce Nominee Favors H1-B Visa Expansion

Sen. Gregg Judd would bring a record to the Department of Commerce that unabashedly endorses an expansion of H1-B workers for the technology industry. That support, though, doesn’t necessarily mean either the U.S. House or Senate will move to expand the H1-B visa cap.

In Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), President Barack Obama’s new nominee to run the Department of Commerce, the tech industry has found their man when it comes to expanding the H1-B visa program. The 61-year-old senator is an unabashed fan of the program. http://www.eweek.com/c/a/IT-Management/Commerce-Nominee-Favors-H1B-Visa-Expansion/By Roy Mark — eWeek.com
