To all US citizens, permanent residents and GC holders
DOL (Department of Labor) has clear regulations that US citizens and permanent residents are to be considered for vacant positions before such vacancies are offered to applicants from abroad.
In most fields, obtaining an H1B visa is a very difficult process and stringent conditions apply before an H1B petition is approved. In medicine it is just the opposite.
Administrators of hospital residency programs, in contravention of DOL rules and regulations, are routinely offering vacant positions to foreign medical graduates (FMGs) not living in the US without first attempting to fill such vacancies with qualified candidates residing within US borders.
Hospital residency positions, including internships, are filled through a centralized electronic application system. Anyone, anywhere in the world with internet access can use this system to apply for hospital residency positions. This allows applicants from abroad to apply at the same time as US citizens and permanent residents.
Since the number of applicants from abroad far outnumber US citizens and permanent residents applying for each vacancy, qualified US citizens and permanent residents are frequently never interviewed for some positions which ultimately are given to non-resident foreign applicants who are then supplied with H1B visas enabling them to work as physicians in the US.
Hospitals are therefore determining who receive visas. Screening of these H1B recipients is minimal at best as hospitals are virtually unfettered in sponsoring H1B visas for candidates they hire from abroad.
Hospitals receive federal, city and state funds from tax dollars, yet citizens and permanent residents residing in the US who contribute these tax dollars are being outnumbered and ignored.
There are currently thousands of unemployed, qualified graduates of foreign medical schools; both US citizens and permanent residents; residing in the US capable of filling these vacancies.
Only after all US citizens and permanent residents who apply are found not suitable, should programs be free to hire non-resident applicants. To interview and subsequently employ non-resident applicants without first interviewing US citizens and permanent resident applicants in order to ascertain their suitability, is utter disregard for US labor laws.
This practice is dangerous in that doctors provided with H1B visas in this manner are not screened as thoroughly as other prospective immigrants are. This practice must be stopped outright.
Please sign this petition and help safeguard the health and safety of our communities.
I ask your help to ensure that:
1.Current laws are respected and enforced.
2.Applicants are appropriately screened before being provided with H1B visas.
3.Regulations stipulating that vacant positions be offered to qualified US citizens and permanent residents before attempting to fill such vacancies with applicants from abroad are complied with.
There are already thousands of qualified, unemployed foreign medical graduates residing in the USA capable of filling these vacancies. Why take this unnecessary risk?
Please sign and forward copies of this petition to your Congressmen, Senators, City and State representatives, newspapers, radio stations and civic organizations in your state.

PLEASE USE ANY non-AOL BROWSER AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO VIEW AND SIGN THE PETITION.

Being a GC holder I feel really sad that people resort to such tactics. I feel strongly about this as my husband was a H1B visa holder prior to becoming a GC holder. H1B is a path to Green Card where by the individual becomes an immigrant based ON HIS OR HER ABILITIES. By the way "posh" you are technically wrong, hospitals sponsor H1B ONLY IF YOU CLEAR STEP 3, GC and US citizens who are FMG have not cleared Step 3. So technically they do not have the same credentials. Also most of the hospitals set up much more tougher criterion for sponsoring H1B visa. So technically no hospital denies a GC holder with "SIMILAR" credentials a residency position. I feel people who get an H1B visa for medical residency position, get it because they have TERRIFIC CREDENTIALS, AND DEMONSTRATED LOT OF PROMISE.

Posh,
Can you please delay your petition untill June 2006 when I will be getting my H1b visa.LOL.
America is sponsoring me an H1B visa because she knew she will benefit a lot from me. And I built my credentials good enough to get an H1B visa in the US because I beleived I will benefit a lot from America. It is mutual benefit. Bussines. Give and take. There are 5000 plus IMG residents in NYC. Imagine what would happen in NYC if all decide to go home at once. You are too stupppid to analize such ordinary matter. What is more funny is you expect every senator to be as dumb as you and read your garbage.
Are you an AMG with 75/75 6th attempt each or a carrebean graduate American citizen with 76/76 both 7th attempt??

Meles: You are proof positive why they SHOULD NOT have eliminated TOFEL. Your spelling is atrocious!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Considering the close similarity in drug names and diagnoses, a mistake in spelling can have catastrophic if not fatal consequences.
And they let you loose on the American public.
No wonder so many of us see our malpractice insurance premiums skyrocketing each and every year because of incompetents like you.

What is ABCD?
Never heard of it.
Is this another slang expression for the juvenile set?

Neither.
I just opt to avail myself of my right as an american to express myself and if that bothers and upsets you, than I can stand and cheer.
