Someone needs to tell the House Speaker that the basic economic principle of ‘supply and demand’ definitely applies to the workforce in America. Paul Ryan’s 2015 2,009-page omnibus spending bill had 700 pages slipped in regarding H-2B visa expansion for foreign workers. He believes that the supply of workers in the United States is not enough to make up for the demand by employers.
This is a staggering suggestion, that the unemployed workers in the United States, the marginally attached and or discouraged, would not take a seasonal job if it became available.
The supply of able bodied workers should be the first to meet the demand of these businesses, yet Ryan believes low-waged foreign earners are the ones who should take them. He has no evidence to support his claim “that corporations are facing a shortage of labor, which rendered the provision necessary.”

Time to shut down Ryan…..so disappointing I had high hopes for this guy
B******t
That dude is a snake, the leaking is from him.
maybe these companies should hire American. Ryan is another open borders creep.
Amazing we lived for over 200 years and now we cant .BS.
I knew it was coming! He’s showing his true colors now!
I think the Hb1 are vetted for pickers re apples -tomatoes etc and have to work in the hot sun. I do remember a few yrs ago that the tomato pickers protesters asking for a lousy 1cent raise. If americans are able to or want to have those jobs they certainly will not work for peanut wages. It is a tough call .
Ryan needs to go…
