QOTD: "The lawsuits [facing Disney and filed] by Mr. Perrero and Ms. Moore are based on the rules for H-1B visas, which Congress designed to bring foreign workers with special skills
into the country. Employers are required to declare to the Department of
Labor that hiring foreigners on the visas "will not adversely affect the
working conditions of U.S. workers similarly employed."

"Was I negatively affected?" Ms. Moore asked. "Yeah, I was. I lost my job."" --Julia Preston
