The Missing Layer: Why “Who Got Paid” and “Who’s on a Visa” Never Connect

by

Take2 Consulting received $512 million in federal subaward revenue and files zero H-1B applications. Raas Infotek is an active, ranked H-1B sponsor and doesn’t appear anywhere in federal contract or subaward data. These aren’t two unrelated curiosities — they’re the same gap, viewed from opposite sides. Federal spending disclosure stops at the first subcontractor tier. Visa disclosure stops at the sponsoring employer. Nothing connects the two, for any company, by design.

Inside the Texas Attorney General’s Office: Child Support, Attorneys, and Who Does the Work

by

The Texas Office of the Attorney General is not a single coherent agency — it is two very different workforces sharing an agency code. On one side: 757 Assistant Attorneys General who average $126,713 a year, backed by law enforcement investigators, legal support staff, and managers. On the other: 1,604 child support officers and technicians who average $55,457 — less than half the attorneys’ pay — and who make up the single largest job category in the agency at 39.6% of all employees.

Asian Employees at the Texas Workforce Commission

by

The hire trend chart is one of the more interesting findings: Asian IT hiring at TWC nearly tripled between 2019 and 2022, peaking at 28 hires in 2022 and holding at 23–25 per year since. That acceleration coincides with the post-COVID period when H-1B processing backlogs cleared.

The salary finding cuts both ways — the $72k Asian average looks good until you see that Hispanic and Black employees, who together are 55% of the workforce, are earning $5,000–6,000 below the agency mean while doing the core public-facing work of the agency.
