There go the jobs. Another 15,000 H-2B visas approved for foreign workers for a total of 81,000 H-2B visas.

All they need to get through the border wall is a visa.

Could care less about seasonal low paying jobs and you shouldn't either. Strive higher for a good job then shake your head at a minimum wage seasonal job given to Hispanics.

No Americans are put out of work, because of these people coming to work here to mow our lawns. It will have zero impact on the US work force. Some people have this fantasy if they don't allow them to come here, they will all the sudden pay US workers $100K a year to mow your lawn.

And that is why many businesses could care less about any worker being replaced by an H1 visa worker. You draw a line at "seasonal low paying jobs" so you really should understand when we draw the line at all those over priced american workers. You have your line in the sand and we have our line in the sand; just that that we can afford to buy the politicians who will let us keep our line.

Never believe a liar who makes promises....and that goes to all politicians, regardless of party. That way, you won't get disappointed.
