That loophole says that technically Edison isnt the HlB workers employer. the two foreign consulting companies are. The HlB workers are just contracted out for extended. potentially multiyear periods from the foreign consulting companies to the American company. Edison. Thus. Edison argues that it is not subject to the requirements under the immigration laws that I spoke of earlier. They argue that because they are not the employer who petitioned directly for the HlB workers. theyEdisondont have to abide by the working condition requirements or the 90day rule. The condemnation of this attack on American workers has been very quick and. quite frankly. bipartisan.
