I did not vote for this! FedEx Wins $2.2B Federal Contract, Then Hires Hundreds Of H-1B Workers While Laying Off Americans

MSN

A multibillion-dollar federal delivery contract awarded to FedEx coincided with a sharp rise in the company’s use of foreign workers, even as it carried out large-scale layoffs of U.S. employees across multiple states.

In December 2022, the U.S. Transportation Command selected FedEx and two other firms to provide package delivery services for government agencies under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract with a total face value of $2.24 billion, according to a report by GovCon Wire.

The award covered the Next Generation Delivery Service-2 program, with a base performance period running from April 1, 2023, through September 30, 2026, and options that could extend the work through September 30, 2030.

Since that award, publicly available immigration data show a substantial increase in FedEx’s hiring of foreign workers through the H-1B visa program.

Remember folks, there are no skilled native-born Americans that can do this work so we must have H1B's.

Indian-born execs are the kiss of death to any company, but those profits must be milked.
Sub-Continent execs are about like Ferengi!

LOL....What do you expect from a company that left Tom Hanks stranded on an island for years and just figured he was dead?

why would the govt give this award to fedx instead of the agency they own?...

Did this just occur or did it happen back in 2022 which actually tracks with other stories about U.S. companies engaging in mass layoffs and then mere weeks later applying for large numbers of H-1B visas? Also do you happen to have a link to the story which shows that they applied for the H-1B visas shortly after the layoffs?

In any case, thanks for posting this. I rather be informed than uninformed.

Don't forget about Elon Musk firing thousands of American Workers, & then Hiring H1B workers to replace them,.... And Trump did what to protect those Americans?

MFers thought those Republicrats had their back?

Not to sidetrack, but what about Trump saying he would let 600,000 Chinese students in?
Every one of these clowns lies. They lie to you and then serve their real benefactors.
Americans have two past times, suckin off Israel and gettin anally dilated by their two parties.
As a fellow American, I really must say, you MFers really need to stop voting for these parties.

You would think that the dems would be totally against H1Bs and H2Bs given how they purport to be for the working man.....Wrong working man I guess.

My last two gop congress critters were all for H2Bs.

Actually, they are creating an army of prostitution bots with AI, so no one can get a job doing that either anymore.

6-7 years ago, my former employer laid off a lot of people when their jobs were sent to India, and the kicker was that those laid off had to train their replacements, who were flown here for their training.

You didn't have to train them, of course, but you would not get 6 months severance pay if you didn't. Talk about adding insult to injury.

The government making sure the donor class gets their cheap labor. Same reason employers aren't being held accountable for hiring illegals.

Dont approve the H-1B visa requests

Maybe it is the new Progressive caste system, with people from India being in a permanent higher class and ****** at the bottom.

LOL.

All I know is that Asians top the charts socioeconomically, yet they are never referred to as the racist bastards keeping everyone else down.

Why?

Again, the trump admin can disapprove the h1-b visa tequests

And we should
