The H-1B visa is probably the most well-known nonimmigrant employment-based visa. Those who know about it are usually either for it or against it. Proponents of H-1B visas usually claim that they are awarded to talented and skilled foreign workers who help make U.S. companies better and therefore are a boon to the U.S. economy. Opponents of H-1B visas often claim that foreign workers take jobs at the expense of U.S. workers, usually because they are willing to do the same work for lower pay.

Discuss the various issues surrounding H-1B visas - the pros and cons of H-1B visas, whether you believe H-1Bs are a benefit or detriment to the U.S. on the whole, and whether the H-1B visa annual limit should be increased, reduced, or eliminated altogether.
