These are America's colleges, universities, K-12 school districts, and educational institutions — organizations funded by tuition dollars, tax dollars, and government grants — filing H-1B petitions to bring in foreign workers. Every one of these filings represents a job that could have gone to an American worker, including the graduates these very institutions trained.
