AZ's own Gabrielle Giffords votes to increase foreign work visas

A lot of my readers are in Arizona, I thought I would do a small and brief feature of yet another chapter in the bankrupting of America's technology workers. From CIO magazine:



The Innovation Employment Act, introduced by Representative Gabrielle Giffords, an Arizona Democrat, late Thursday, would increase the cap in H-1B visas from 65,000 a year to 130,000 a year. In addition, there would be no cap on H-1B applications for foreign graduate students attending U.S. colleges and studying science, technology and related fields. Currently, there's a 20,000-a-year cap on visas for graduate students in all fields.

Bill Would Double Cap on H-1B Visas

Gabrielle, how exactly is this bill serving your consituents? I note that her web site does not include any press releases concerning this bill's introduction at the time of writing. There was this item, that shows she discussed the matter several months ago, but her site tends to concentrate on more important matters like press photos and cheerleading solar energy.
