Summary
The bill adds new requirements to the immigration law that force employers to certify they have recruited U.S. workers before offering a job to a foreign national. It sets out how employers must document their recruiting, limits layoffs of similar U.S. jobs, and gives the Labor Secretary authority to investigate and enforce the attestations. The aim is to protect American jobs and ensure foreign hires do not displace domestic workers.
