Nikki Haley: Let CEOs Import Workers and Graduates They ‘Need’
American CEOs should be allowed to import all the foreign workers they say they “need,” Nikki Haley told supporters at a New Hampshire campaign stop.
“So for too long, Republican and Democrat presidents dealt with immigration based on a [annual] quota,” she told the roomful of supporters:
We’ll take X number this year, we’ll take X number next year, the debate is on the number. It’s the wrong way to look at it. We need to do it based on merit. We need to go to our industries and say “What do you need that you don’t have?”
So think agriculture, think tourism, think tech, we want the talent that’s going to make us better.
Haley’s reference to “think tech” refers to the many white-collar careers that are now being filled by cheap and compliant foreign graduates instead of available and trained American graduates.
Haley continued:
Then you bring people in that can fill those needs. That way you’re actually emboldening in your economy. [Emphasis added]
Yes, the fabric of America is legal immigration. But let’s get the right ones in that are gonna make America better.
“What Nikki Haley is proposing is to legalize human labor trafficking” for CEOs, said Jay Palmer, an immigration law adviser to CEOs and migrants. “The migrants will come over here, they will be abused, and they will work for any wages because the economy in the United States is better than in their country,” Palmer told Breitbart News.
Haley’s “fabric of America” claim was delivered as many establishment media outlets tout her as a “hard-liner” on migration, or a moderate, and as the last, best hope for the establishment GOP against President Donald Trump. “Ms. Haley has momentum,” said a November 6 editorial in the Washington Post that did not mention wages, jobs, or immigration.
She is also portrayed as a “hard-liner” even though Haley’s October open-borders-for-CEOs speech echoed an April speech: “When it comes to actual immigration laws itself, instead of doing quotas every year on how many we’re going to let through, you partner with your businesses and see what they need.”
A New York Times article on her November campaign event did not mention her “need” giveaway to the Fortune 500. But the article by
In her New Hampshire speech, Haley also suggested that she would let Biden’s six million-plus illegal migrants stay in the country providing they labor in jobs:
If they’re feeding off the [welfare] system, you send them back. If they’re actually trying to be productive and have a job and have a record that we can look at, then we can look at what happens.
“That’s a very strong suggestion that she has little interest about removing people who don’t belong here,” responded Jon Feere, the director of investigations at the Center for Immigration Studies.
“She’s the type of candidate the Chamber of Commerce loves,” he told Breitbart News, adding, “She’s going to promise everything they want and they ignore the reasons that [President Donald] Trump got elected in 2016, which includes a strong position on immigration.”
Rival Republicans say that immigration should help ordinary Americans.
“To protect American STEM workers, we will reimplement all of our historic actions regarding H-1B workers, including the termination of the visa lottery, the non-displacement rule, and the highest salary first rule,” Trump told Breitbart News in August.
“Ron DeSantis believes that the H1-B program has been used to undercut American wages and will work to reform the program to ensure that H1-B visas do not displace or undermine American workers,” DeSantis’s team told Breitbart News.
Haley’s open-borders-for-CEOs offer echoes the “Any Willing Worker” plan pushed by failed President George W. Bush in 2004.
“New immigration laws should serve the economic needs of our country,” Bush announced in January 2004. “If an American employer is offering a job that American citizens are not willing to take, we ought to welcome into our country a person who will fill that job,” he said.
The Haley policy also matches the semi-covert “Extraction Migration” economic strategy adopted by Biden’s deputies, and the max-migration policy pushed by Canada’s Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau.
Haley’s giveaway to CEOs and investors would be bad for the nation, Feere said: “She’s saying that she believes foreigners and corporations should be the only people making decisions about how much immigration the United States should have in a given year. I can’t think of a less democratic way of looking at immigration policy.”
“She looks at [immigration] entirely as a policy for obtaining cheap captive labor. I”m sorry, but our immigration system is about creating permanent future American citizens and that’s not something that should be outsourced to billion-dollar corporations so they can make a quick buck,” he added.
Her policy is also bad for the U.S. economy, productivity, innovation, and wages, Feere said. “Anyone who believes that businesses are capable of saying this is how many people we need doesn’t understand that there is no limit to the amount of cheap foreign labor a business seeks to import. It’s never-ending.”
He continued: “As soon as these foreign workers become too expensive, in the minds of the business owners, they call upon politicians — like Nikki Haley — to bring them even more people who are willing to work for less. It’s basic economics — you flood them, the labor force with large numbers of people, it gives power to the businesses rather than the employees, and there’s no telling how far wages will go down. Or more importantly, how long they will stagnate.”
Haley “has an 18th-century perspective on labor — [there is] no conversation about mechanizing jobs,” he added: “All [her] talk about STEM technological advancements — that will never see the light of day if we continue to give businesses and corporations a reason not to mechanize. That’s precisely what cheap foreign labor is — it’s an incentive to continue doing business as they always have, not innovate, not raise wages or improve working conditions to attract lawful residents to the jobs.”
“She’s celebrating the creation of a permanent underclass that’s willing to work for less,” he said.
It is possible that Haley was merely pandering to business supporters and donors, Feere said. But, he added, “If there were any evidence that she was strong on immigration enforcement and had previously shown opposition to massive increases in legal immigration, then maybe I wouldn’t take this so seriously. But the reality is, her long-term view has been more immigration by any means necessary.”
Breitbart News asked Haley’s campaign to explain her migrants-for-CEO’s comments. The campaign declined to answer the questions but did send this comment:
Nikki Haley believes we should send back those immigrants who didn’t follow the law to come here. We are a country of laws, and the second we give up being a country of laws, we give up everything this country is founded on.
Immigrants who want to come here need to come the right way, through legal pathways, not break our laws and feed off the system.
Haley’s team also touted more border protections, saying:
We also need to make it more difficult for those to cross and stay illegally by bringing back Remain in Mexico and Title 42. Nikki will end catch-and-release and start catch-and-deport by hiring new Border Patrol and ICE agents, and she will stop handouts to illegal immigrants and sanctuary cities.
Haley’s poll ratings leave her far short of winning the GOP nomination, But establishment media outlets, donors, and politicians are promoting her for the Vice Presidency in a GOP administration. That job would help her corporate donors fight back against any populist proposals in the GOP-run White House.
Haley has relied heavily on major investors for donations. Politico reported in August 2022:
Haley’s nonprofit policy advocacy group, Stand For America, Inc., has received major donations from people including New York hedge fund manager Paul Singer, investor Stanley Druckenmiller, and Miriam Adelson and her late husband, casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, the Internal Revenue Service filings reveal.
The roster of supporters who gave undisclosed donations in 2019 also includes Suzanne Youngkin, the wife of Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, himself a possible presidential contender; former Pennsylvania Senate candidate and hedge fund executive David McCormick; and Vivek and Lakshmi Garipalli, members of a New Jersey family that has donated large sums to Democrats — but which gave Haley’s organization $1 million.
The New York Times gushed on November 9:
There are some signs major donors are turning their attention to her. Harlan Crow, a wealthy real estate developer, hosted a fund-raiser for her in October with well-connected real estate and oil and gas donors in attendance. Former Gov. Bruce Rauner of Illinois, a top giver to Mr. DeSantis, transferred his allegiance to Ms. Haley after the first debate. Last week, one of former Vice President Mike Pence’s top donors — the Arkansas poultry magnate Ron Cameron — said he would back her, after Mr. Pence dropped out of the race.
The New York Times article ignored Haley’s giveaway offer of cheap blue-collar and white-collar labor to investors.
“Most politicians do not know the business side of immigration,” said Palmer. “Nikki Haley is so out of touch … I think that her Super PACs are swaying her judgment,” said Palmer.
Apple Pays $25 Million to Settle Claims It Discriminated Against Americans in Favor of Hiring Foreign Workers
Apple has agreed to pay a paltry $25 million settlement to resolve allegations of discriminating against U.S. citizens and legal residents in its hiring practices. The DOJ charged the Silicon Valley giant with giving preference to foreign workers by failing to advertise open positions on its recruitment website in a scheme to ensure it could fill vacancies with foreign workers it could sponsor to enter the country.
Engadget reports that Apple has settled claims brought by the DOJ, agreeing to pay $25 million over allegations of discriminating against U.S. citizens and permanent residents during its hiring process. This case is particularly noteworthy as it is the largest settlement the DOJ has obtained under the anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act, but even taking that into consideration, it is less than a drop in the bucket for Apple, which enjoyed profits of about $100 billion in 2022.

The dispute centered around the Permanent Labor Certification Program (PERM), a federal program that allows U.S. employers to sponsor foreign workers for permanent residency. Under this program, employers are required to ensure open advertisement of job positions to all potential applicants, irrespective of citizenship status.
However, Apple was accused of failing to meet these requirements. The company did not list PERM positions on its recruitment website and made the application process more challenging for these roles by requiring paper applications, a step not required for other non-PERM positions. This led to a significant reduction in applications from U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
As part of the settlement, Apple will pay $6.75 million in civil penalties and create an $18.25 million fund to compensate victims of this discrimination. Apple’s response acknowledged the oversight and the company’s supposed commitment to compliance with government requirements and to continuing its significant employment in the U.S.
This case comes amidst broader concerns about employment practices in the tech industry. Many have argued that federal agencies tend to favor large corporations, citing cases like Facebook’s settlement over similar allegations. Despite paying fines, these companies often do not admit legal wrongdoing, leading to criticisms of the penalties as being insufficient.
s Breitbart News’ Neil Munro documented in 2021, fines and other penalties are often so insignificant for the Silicon Valley Masters of the Universe that companies like Apple and Facebook consider them a minor cost of doing business:
“It’s not even a slap on the wrist” for Facebook, said Kevin Lynn, founder of U.S. Tech Workers. “What the Department of Justice has said, whether they intended to say this or not, is that [anti-American] country of origin discrimination is fine …[because] if you get caught, the penalties assessed are de minimus,” he added.
“Everyone involved … knows that many, probably most employers, game the system to exclude qualified US workers from ever getting a shot at the open position,” tweeted Ron Hira, a professor at Howard University. The small fine and legal settlements do “nothing to fix the widespread scamming of the high-skilled immigration process,” he said.
The alleged discrimination was conducted while Facebook executives were hiring foreign visa workers for 2,600 permanent jobs that would provide them with green cards. If the Americans had won the jobs, many of Facebook’s foreign visa workers would have been sent back to their home countries.
Furthermore, there is growing concern over the systemic issues in the tech industry’s employment practices. The use of visa worker programs, such as H-1B and L-1 visas, has been criticized for contributing to a form of structural discrimination against American workers. Critics argue that these programs enable companies to hire foreign graduates with the promise of green cards, creating a labor force that competes unfairly against U.S. graduates. This practice is seen as contributing to lower wages and reduced job opportunities for American workers in the tech sector.
Critics also highlight the broader impact of these practices on the U.S. professional class. They argue that the widespread use of foreign contract workers, often erroneously labeled as “high-skilled,” from lower-grade colleges, undermines the employment prospects of U.S. graduates. This situation is compounded by allegations that foreign-born managers in some Fortune 500 companies favor hiring from their own ethnic or regional groups, further marginalizing American workers.

Many Turn Against ‘Sanctuary City’ Status–Tulsa, OK Becomes State’s First ‘Welcoming City’
As many cities have begun to turn away from being “welcoming” or “sanctuary” cities, the City of Tulsa, Oklahoma, seems to be heading in the opposite direction.
Activists for migrants were celebrating this week by designating Tulsa as its newest “Welcoming City.” The designation comes after Mayor G.T. Bynum and members of the city council enacted several measures since September to make the city a more desirable destination for illegal migrants.
The group Welcoming America has helped cities across America create, promote, and guide efforts to create conditions better for migrants in American cities.
One of the efforts by Tulsa was the Asian Affairs Commission enacted by Mayor Bynum in September, the group says. The new commission will focus on workforce and economic development, education, and civic engagement, according to KOSU.
During his State of the City address on November 2, Bynum also announced that the city hired an immigrant services liaison to connect immigrants with jobs in Tulsa.
“The work of Catholic Charities, the YWCA, B’nai Emunah Synagogue and so many others led President Biden’s top aid for refugee resettlement to come to Tulsa to see how we were handling it, because he wanted to use us as a model for other cities around the country,” Bynum said during his address.
The initiatives formed part of Bynum’s campaign for mayor, as well. On his website, Bynum promised to launch “the New Tulsans Initiative, which is focused on making Tulsa a beacon of freedom and opportunity for immigrants all around the world.”
Tulsa is now one of 18 cities and counties that Welcoming America has lavished with its “Welcoming City” designation.
Still, illegals make up but a small part of Oklahoma’s population. According to the American Immigration Council, in 2018 there were only 236,882 immigrants of all sorts in the state, making up just six percent of the population. In 2016 the group estimated there were 85,000 undocumented aliens. And according to the Migration Policy Institute, there were still only 90,000 by 2019.
Meanwhile, the City of New York alone has seen a flood of 110,000 illegals since last spring. While Chicago has suffered with 15,000.
Unlike in Tulsa, a place that seems safely distanced from wave after wave of illegal migration, cities such as New York and Chicago are knee deep in political arguments over eliminating sanctuary city policies that have made them a target.
A recent poll in Chicago, for instance, found that 46 percent of voters want to put an end to sanctuary city policies. And the aldermen in city hall have been fighting over the issue.
In New York, a growing number of elected officials are beginning to turn against sanctuary policies, saying that the policies are causing havoc in the Empire State.
