Standing Up for American Workers in 2025

We are a grassroots movement of American graduates, professionals, and patriots fighting to protect U.S. jobs from the harmful effects of H-1B, L1, J1, OPT, and H4EAD foreign worker visas. At White-Collar Workers of America, we believe that American jobs should go to Americans—period. Our mission is to amplify the voices of U.S. workers who are being displaced by corporate greed and outdated visa programs that prioritize cheap foreign labor over our own citizens.

A Legacy of Action, A Future of Change

Back in 2020, our community played a pivotal role in pushing for President Trump’s July 22 executive order, which temporarily blocked new H-1B visa workers through late 2020. We lobbied legislators, flooded social media with our stories, and made thousands of calls to demand action. Our activism showed the world that Americans reject mass immigration and foreign labor programs that undermine our workforce. We put a human face on the struggle of white-collar workers, proving that the majority of Americans want jobs reserved for U.S. citizens.

Fast forward to 2025: Trump is back in office, but the H-1B program still exists, and it’s still hurting American workers. With unemployment on the rise and AI automating jobs at an unprecedented rate, we can’t afford to let corporations continue exploiting foreign visa programs to replace U.S. talent. It’s time to finish what we started.

Why H-1B Visas Are a Threat in 2025

The H-1B visa program was supposed to bring in “top talent” to fill labor shortages, but facts and data tell a different story.

Mass Layoffs and Hiring Freezes: Silicon Valley is laying off workers, recent computer science graduates are struggling to find jobs, and STEM wages are stagnant. Yet, companies are still pushing for more H-1B visas, forcing Americans to train their foreign replacements before being fired. This isn’t a labor shortage—it’s a deliberate strategy to undercut U.S. workers.

Not for Top Talent: Most H-1B visa holders aren’t the “best and brightest” but rather lower-paid labor. This floods the market with mid-level workers, making it harder for Americans to compete and driving many to leave industries like software engineering altogether.

Exploitation of the System: Companies like Salesforce misuse H-1B visas for non-tech roles like marketing, while small businesses exploit the program for family immigration benefits. Universities are also using it to hire administrators, not researchers, further diluting its intended purpose.

Wage Suppression and Replacement: The H-1B program was designed to help employers replace American workers with cheaper foreign labor, manipulating wages and working conditions. Most U.S. companies force Americans to train their H-1B replacements, a practice that’s become all too common.

There is a growing consensus: the H-1B program isn’t about filling gaps; it’s about corporate profits at the expense of American workers. With AI already reducing demand for entry-level tech jobs (as noted in a January 9, 2025, Fox News article by a Berkeley professor), the last thing we need is more foreign workers competing for the few opportunities left.

The Current Crisis: Unemployment and AI

In 2025, the job market for white-collar workers is tougher than ever. The tech sector, a major employer of H-1B workers, has seen massive layoffs—85,000 workers were let go by the top 30 H-1B employers in 2022 and early 2023 alone, according to the Economic Policy Institute. Job postings for software development roles are down to 67% of their February 2020 levels, per CBS News (January 13, 2025). Meanwhile, AI is automating entry-level positions, making it even harder for recent graduates to break into the industry.

Despite this, companies like Amazon, Google, and Meta continue to hire thousands of new H-1B workers each year—over 34,000 in 2022, per the Economic Policy Institute. This isn’t about a “skills shortage”; it’s about cutting costs. The average H-1B worker earns less than their American counterpart, and the program’s structure makes them de facto indentured labor, unable to negotiate better wages or leave for better opportunities without risking deportation.

Our Mission: End H-1B and Protect American Jobs

At White-Collar Workers of America, we’re doubling down on our fight to eliminate H-1B and other foreign worker visas. Here’s what we’re doing in 2025:

• Educating the Public: We’re spreading awareness about how H-1B, OPT, L1, J1, and H4EAD visas harm American workers, using platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram to reach new audiences.
• Advocating for Change: We’re calling and emailing the White House, USCIS, Senators, and Representatives to demand the complete elimination of the H-1B program. With Trump back in office, we have a real chance to make this happen.
• Building Our Community: We’re recruiting new members to join our fight. Share our message with your friends, family, and followers at least three times a week to keep the pressure on.
• Supporting American Professionals: We’re fighting for unmatched American doctors and other professionals, ensuring they get the opportunities they deserve in their own country.

Our Alliance: Stronger Than Ever

We’re proud to work alongside a powerful coalition of champions who share our vision:
