Folks Take Look at this
**************************************************
I'm a business reporter for ANG Newspapers, which is a chain of Bay Area
newspapers that includes the Oakland Tribune, the Daily Review (Hayward),
the Argus (Fremont), the Tri-Valley Herald (Pleasanton) and the San Mateo
County Times.
I'm looking for people who live in the East Bay or San Mateo County to talk
about the following issues:
1) There has in the past few months been a public backlash against offshore
outsourcing, H1-B visas and L-1 visas. One congressman proposes to eliminate
the H1-B program entirely. Another proposal is to limit the L-1 visa. What
do you think of this?
2) Do you think offshore outsourcing is a good trend or a bad one?
3) Has there been a rise in anti-immigrant sentiment in Bay Area
offices/workplaces recently?
4) What, if anything, should be done to reform the H1-B and L1-visa
programs?
Thank you,
Alan Zibel
