According to the company. 100 additional American workers who will also be replaced by HlB workers will leave supposedly voluntarily. According to Computerworld. the final major batch of layoffs is scheduled for March 6 or March 7. The foreign workers who are replacing the American workers at Edison are employees of two overseasbased IT consulting companies that are also two of the largest users of HlB visas. In 2013 one of the two companies paid the largest immigration fine in U.S. history. That company paid $34 million in a civil settlement after allegations of systemic visa fraud and abuse. The jobs being filled by HlB workers are manifestly not jobs for which Americans are unavailable. I say that because the jobs are currently filled by skilled American workers.
