But there are a few professional fields such as nursing have a different story. The United States will require at least 1.2 million new RNs by 2014 to meet the nursing demand. This would include 500,000 RNs to replace RNs leaving the field, and another 700,000 to meet the growing demand for nursing care. In fact, the shortage of RNs and increased workload for current nurses is a threat to the quality of patient care. Because of the nursing shortage, facilities are unable to expand services or prepare for an emergency response. Sometimes, hospitals have been forced to close beds and wings at their hospitals due to the nursing shortage. U.S.-Educated Foreign Nurses would be one of solutions for the nursing shortage.

If you want or have received TARP funding, you have to lose all your H1-Bs. You don't get taxpayer help if you don't help the tax base by providing American jobs. If you want to import a passel of Indian, German or Swedish dudes to do your programming and risk analysis, then perhaps you can go hat-in-hand to the Indian, German or Swedish governments and see if they'll provide your business a loan.<br><br>The abuse of the H1-B visa program is well-documented and has been going on for many years. This is clearly the time and place to bring a stop to those abuses. The solution seems simple to me. If you want or have received TARP funding, you have to lose all your H1-Bs.
