Trump official reveals shocking reality of H-1B visa program from his field inspection in Texas.
Anthony D’Esposito, the inspector general of the US Department of Labor, revealed the shocking reality that they found during their field inspection in Texas: companies that were allowed H-1B visas do not have any existence.
"We are on the ground in Texas. We are in a building here with two stories, probably a couple of dozen offices.. tech companies," the Trump official said to Newsmax from his ground visit."We have been knocking on the doors. Just this building alone has over 500 approved H-1B applications. And we are knocking on doors and not getting many answers. So it's very hard to believe that these visas that were supposed to be issued for unique uses by companies who need them to stay in business in the United States.
Not only are they not even behind the door; but the doors are shut, the lights are off. It doesn't seem like anybody has been here for a while," D'Esposito said.
What is the H-1B investigation going on?
A major crackdown on OPT and H-1B visa programs was announced by the Donald Trump administration in July. As part of the investigation, officers are visiting companies that employ H-1B visa holders and checking whether they have physical offices and employees.
“This is not just fraud: This is a criminal enterprise that stretches far beyond the borders of America,” D’Esposito told Breitbart News before his Texas visit. "Without revealing too much of an investigation, I think that when complete, one of the things that will probably make the American people most angry… and will probably lead to the biggest change from lawmakers... they will probably bring oversight to this.
..[is] the fact that many of the individuals that you’re talking about that are selling these jobs, getting kickbacks. We will clearly outline and define their relationships with... whether it’s gangs [or] whether it is transnational criminal organizations," he said.D'Esposito said that the target of this investigation is not the migrant workers because they are only "pawns in a dangerous chess game being played by big companies".
