They brought in 500 foreign workers from India in some sort of contract deal. had the American workers who had been at Edison doing computer work for years train the new workers. and then ended up terminating the Americans and replacing them with those from abroad. How can anyone say there was a shortage of workers? The same was done by Disney. Senator NELSON of Florida and I introduced legislation to fix that. I have introduced legislation with Senator CRUZ and supported legislation from Senator GRASSLEY to fix this program. None of that has been included in this bill. Why not? I asked for an expansion of the 287(g) program that allows Federal law enforcement officials and officers to assist with enforcing our immigration law. This was a good program. It had been on the books.
