I'm surprised no thread on this. Trump signs the order, and of course the media is harping on the fact that Trump still uses visa workers.....
Buy American directive seems to be for federal government aimed to boost manufacturing. When american items exist, then buy that instead of foreign stuff.
Hire American directive is about forcing higher pay for H1B's as they are paid very low for what they do.
Victory for America as H1B's are pretty much corporate welfare programs, and while Trump doesnt go after seasonal and farm workers, he's going after big fish.
