Reblogged from Nancy J. Thorner:
It was on March 31 that Vice President Joe Biden had the following exchange with a Davenport, Iowa TV station in a series of questions regarding H-1 visas taking American jobs:
Question: Are too many H1B visas given out each year? Are too many highly skilled jobs going to people outside the U.S.?
Biden's answer: No H1b visa can be granted to an employee to come to a company unless they can prove there is no American to fill the job.
