H-1B Visa
Do you know that H-1B saves some jobs in US.
Ever Visa worker here spends 75% or more of the US income here in US. That means the money is not going out of the country and is generating jobs in terms of housing, tourism etc (Many of these workers bring their family members and tour the US with the money they earn here.)

Now imagine the visa program is cancelled by the government. These jobs will go to India and the money stays there. This what was happeing in the last two years when the dotcom bust happened. All of a sudden corporations realized that they have a better option than the H-1B visa. Outsource! A lot jobs revolving around hitech visa workers just disappeared. Look at the empty apartments and restaurants in Silicon Valley for an example.
