As far as I can tell, H1B Visa holders aren't a protected class, so you could fire them first.
However, national origin is. So some might argue that by firing the H1Bs first, you'd be targeting national origin as a proxy.
@OP use some basic internet research skillz and/or do what it seems one does know and get up all in the ChatGPT or that little retired football player Gronkowski that sits inside X/Twitter. Ask him/it.
nepotism at best within the caste system who all talk amongst themselves in their own indian languages.
@an respectfully disagree many counted in IT. Imminently, the RIF next week, in IT will keep all the brothers and sisters, FL, TX, & VA, holding H-1B visa status and will continue to be employed while US citizens are displaced.
Verizon is one of the lowest users of h1b. The problem is not that, the problem is half of the jobs going to VZI. If something got to be done, it is to tax outsourcing.
@af then having born US babies 2+ who can by law constitution become the POTUS and live in the white house.
Vote for political candidates that are promising to ban H1b visas. It’s the only way to stop companies like Verizon from replacing its American workforce.
VZ management employees not unionized
Multiplied by then have bringing spouses being H-1B visa holders
