And there have been such cases. But lets keep in mind that in America. justice is served not by restricting the lawabiding. but by targeting those who violate our laws. In 1997. the Department of Labor found three employers who were found to have engaged in willful violations of the H1B program. Three. These violators accounted for three visas out of 65.000 granted in that year. So while it is important that we make it clear that we will not tolerate abuse. we must keep the number of incidents in perspective and engage in targeted actions that do not punish the innocent with the guilty. Today. according to ITAA. 70 percent of Americas high tech firms identify an inability to find enough skilled people as the leading barrier to their companies growth and competitiveness in global markets.
