Rep. Duyne on Foreign Work Visa Fraud: If Your Business Model Is Breaking American Laws to Displace US Workers, You’re Going to Feel the Pain

‘You got the wrong business model’

RUSH EXCERPT:
DUYNE: "Look. This system started. This program started to try to bring the best and the brightest. Loopholes have been manipulated. A whole cottage industry has been created and why? The odds are going it caught doing it are very low. At if they do the fines they would experience are basically the cost of doing business written of the fines are like $5000 for willful fraud. If you lay off a displaced American workers only 35000 people we are doing with this bill is saying enough is enough proof your business model is breaking American allies that you can hire foreign workers in displaced U.S. workers you got the wrong business model you are going to feel the pain is of the 5000-dollar fine you’re facing 100,000-dollar fine and set up a 35000-dollar fine you are facing $8,250,000 fine per action by the way that is per account. And, if you affront willfully doing this depending upon the violation you could be prevented from participating in this program for up to 10 years. We have got to have fines that actually make a difference and change the business models to help these companies enough is enough for it American workers, American wages should not suffer because we have companies who figured out a loophole to be able to bring in foreign workers for cheap."
