(31,261 posts)A large issue are employers that don't typically hire immigrant class workers (not due to discrimination as much as it is due to the skill sets required). Those people may be ignorant of systems like E-Verify, so education when they apply for business licenses may be needed.
You were a farmer. The visa program that I mentioned would largely affect your former area of business. How would you set up a program that works in areas where Americans are unwilling to do certain jobs that immigrants will do?
Some jobs that used to be labor intensive no longer are, for example, trash and recycle pickup in my town is fully automated now, one person in a truck using a mechanized lift, I see lots of Black and White and Hispanic Americans driving the trucks, those are jobs that counties may want to keep open to citizens, so a visa program must take that into account.
