Join us at True Texas Project this month to hear from senior investigative reporter, Kellen Jones, about the way that Texas companies are filling their job openings with H-1B visas. Some of the corporate “giants” listed as utilizing this program are Cognizant, Tesla, Charles Schwab & Co. and others. What started in the 90’s under the guise of temporary workers filling highly skilled positions that could not otherwise be filled, has unsurprisingly turned into an immigration funnel for entire foreign-born families who use our visas and our public services, including the public education system. These programs not only take highly sought after positions away from U.S. citizens, but also drive wages down for others in the same or related fields. Come hear about this topic and more in great detail from Kellen Jones, from The Dallas Express.
