OBAMA CONSIDERING GRANTING 800K GUEST-WORKER VISAS AS 90% BELIEVE AMERICAN WORKERS SHOULD BE FAVORED After meeting with a bevy of big-business groups, President Barack Obama is reportedly considering granting them up to 800,000 additional guest-worker visas via executive actions. According to the Associated Press, one of the more popular requests among business and family groups is a change in the way green cards are counted, which would essentially free up some 800,000 additional visas the first year. In addition, other requests have included removing the requirement that some spouses of U.S. citizens return to their native country for at least three years before they can apply for U.S. residency, as well as extending work permits to the spouses of all temporary H1-B skilled workers. The Obama administration is also considering granting work permits for low-skilled industries as well. The Obama administration has already increased the number of guest-worker permits by possibly 100,000 when it allowed the spouses of high-tech guest-workers who are applying for permanent residency to obtain permits. Numerous companies – like Microsoft and Cisco – have massively laid off American workers while pushing the Obama administration for more guest-worker visas at a time when scholars and studies from organizations on the left, right, and center have debunked the notion that there is a shortage of American high-tech workers. The Obama administration reportedly wants to appease big-business interests so they give him air cover for his potential executive amnesty, which may enable millions of illegal immigrants to get work permits in addition to temporary amnesty. breitbart/Big-Government/2014/08/21/Obama-Considering-Unilaterally-Granting-800K-Guest-Worker-Visas-as-90-Believe-American-Workers-Should-Be-Favored
