Biden Brags About Importing ‘Record’ Foreign Workers to Compete Against Americans for Jobs:
President Joe Biden is bragging about the “record” number of foreign visa workers his administration has brought to the United States to compete for working and middle class jobs against unemployed Americans.
During a press conference with Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO), Biden bragged that his Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has created a steady flow to the U.S. of foreign workers on agricultural H-2A and nonagricultural H-2B visas.
“Last year, my administration set a record — we issued more than 300,000 H-2 visas for Mexican workers,” Biden said. “We also reached a five-year high in the visas we issued to Central Americans, and we’re on pace to double this in … this fiscal year for Central America.”
Biden’s inflating the U.S. labor market with millions of foreign workers comes as millions of working-age Americans remain on the labor market sidelines.
“There are approximately 11.5 million job openings in the United States right now, and 14.73 million employable Americans,” a study by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) notes. “This means that there are 3.23 million more workers in the country than open jobs.” --->READ MORE HERE

Study: Millions of Americans Still on Job Market Sidelines, Weighed Down by Mass Immigration
Millions of Americans remain out of the labor market, new research shows, as mass immigration pours into the United States under President Joe Biden.
A study by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) — which looked at job figures from September 2020 to March 2022 — found that while the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other corporate special interests lobby for more overall immigration, the number of Americans still on the labor market sidelines remains substantial.
“There are approximately 11.5 million job openings in the United States right now, and 14.73 million employable Americans,” FAIR researchers note. “This means that there are 3.23 million more workers in the country than open jobs.”
Much of the recent drop-off in the labor force participation rate, FAIR researchers state, can be credited to the Chinese coronavirus pandemic and the generous public benefits the federal government began offering as a result. --->READ MORE HERE
