Templar, I am pretty sure that is ALREADY the law."At Will" Employment.Well, first of all, we need to work the H1-B program so that we allow them to come here and work, but not allow them to supplant Americans from their existing jobs. We'll say "We're sorry, but that job is taken. Go look for a job like everyone else. You don't get preferential treatment."
Then companies will fire one employee a month and replace that "empty" position with an H1-B.
Well then such a practice should be rendered illegal. A business can't just arbitrarily fire someone just to meet a quota the government imposes on businesses. I think that would qualify as employment discrimination.
I have discussed this with attorneys and companies CAN fire an employee for the flimsiest of reasons.
The onus is on the fired employee to prove some sort of discrimination or conspiracy.
Like I said. Make a law that requires business to prove a viable, justifiable reason for arbitrarily firing an employee.
"Because I wanted to" should not be a sufficient answer.
The problem is no one is enforcing it.
That is unfortunate then. I think the word we're looking for here is "reform."
