Overview The H-1B program applies to employers seeking to hire nonimmigrant aliens as workers in specialty occupations or as fashion models of distinguished merit and ability. A specialty occupation is one that requires the application of a body of highly specialized knowledge and the attainment of at least a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent. The intent of the H-1B provisions is to help employers who cannot otherwise obtain needed business skills and abilities from the U.S. workforce by authorizing the temporary employment of qualified individuals who are not otherwise authorized to work in the United States.
The law establishes certain standards in order to protect similarly employed U.S. workers from being adversely affected by the employment of the nonimmigrant workers, as well as to protect the H-1B nonimmigrant workers. Employers must attest to the Department of Labor that they will pay wages to the H-1B nonimmigrant workers that are at least equal to the actual wage paid by the employer to other workers with similar experience and qualifications for the job in question, or the prevailing wage for the occupation in the area of intended employment – whichever is greater.
Had always heard Reeves was one of the few h-wood good guys.

Too little, too late Abbot. You’re out.

Let's go easy... She? is a mental health advocate after all!
Assuming this is not some photoshop....
Not sure who he is parading in front of, but those are NOT US Marines.
That mock-up of a Dressed Blue uniform is a joke. Not to mention the waistline on half of these idiot actors.
Sooooo over it. They we're reaching 5-10x a day last week.
I've made it clear they won't they'll never get a dollar out of me..
Man, I feel like a dirtbag for not thinking anything close to this but after reading it, I can only imagine how exhausted he must be. Excellent point, I think.
All of these sub stories have been super fishy.
Since when did we start disclosing the status of our most lethal and stealth strike weapon(s)?
And now a publicly disclosed stand-down? “C’mon man!”
Ooh Rah!! Semper Fi and Happy Birthday Marines!!!
Came in for this. Video represents the great work of TX state agencies + National Guard.
What dept or agency of govt gives you such broad visibility?
Most FF’s are on city/county/commonwealth payrolls.
Your comment seems incredibly generalized and does not align at all to anything in my area.
Does it seem normal that an RN would have this level of discretion/authority?
Seems to me that something this serious would come from an MD or some administrative role...
How about the 33 wrist tattoo....
From the CDC Site:
https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/aboutlawsregulationsquarantineisolation.html
Federal Law The federal government derives its authority for isolation and quarantine from the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S. Code § 264), the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services is authorized to take measures to prevent the entry and spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States and between states.
The authority for carrying out these functions on a daily basis has been delegated to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
CDC’s Role Under 42 Code of Federal Regulations parts 70 and 71, CDC is authorized to detain, medically examine, and release persons arriving into the United States and traveling between states who are suspected of carrying these communicable diseases.
As part of its federal authority, CDC routinely monitors persons arriving at U.S. land border crossings and passengers and crew arriving at U.S. ports of entry for signs or symptoms of communicable diseases.
When alerted about an ill passenger or crew member by the pilot of a plane or captain of a ship, CDC may detain passengers and crew as necessary to investigate whether the cause of the illness on board is a communicable disease.
State, Local, and Tribal Law States have police power functions to protect the health, safety, and welfare of persons within their borders. To control the spread of disease within their borders, states have laws to enforce the use of isolation and quarantine.
These laws can vary from state to state and can be specific or broad. In some states, local health authorities implement state law. In most states, breaking a quarantine order is a criminal misdemeanor.
Tribes also have police power authority to take actions that promote the health, safety, and welfare of their own tribal members. Tribal health authorities may enforce their own isolation and quarantine laws within tribal lands, if such laws exist.
Who Is in Charge
The federal government Acts to prevent the entry of communicable diseases into the United States. Quarantine and isolation may be used at U.S. ports of entry. Is authorized to take measures to prevent the spread of communicable diseases between states. May accept state and local assistance in enforcing federal quarantine. May assist state and local authorities in preventing the spread of communicable diseases.
State, local, and tribal authorities Enforce isolation and quarantine within their borders. It is possible for federal, state, local, and tribal health authorities to have and use all at the same time separate but coexisting legal quarantine power in certain events. In the event of a conflict, federal law is supreme.
Enforcement If a quarantinable disease is suspected or identified, CDC may issue a federal isolation or quarantine order.
Public health authorities at the federal, state, local, and tribal levels may sometimes seek help from police or other law enforcement officers to enforce a public health order.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Coast Guard officers are authorized to help enforce federal quarantine orders.
Breaking a federal quarantine order is punishable by fines and imprisonment.
Federal law allows the conditional release of persons from quarantine if they comply with medical monitoring and surveillance.
In the rare event that a federal order is issued by CDC, those individuals will be provided with an order for quarantine or isolation. An example of a Quarantine Order for Novel Coronavirus (print-only) pdf icon[PDF – 5 pages] is provided. This document outlines the rationale of the federal order as well as information on where the individual will be located, quarantine requirements including the length of the order, CDC’s legal authority, and information outlining what the individual can expect while under federal order.
Federal Quarantine Rarely used Large-scale isolation and quarantine was last enforced during the influenza (“Spanish Flu”) pandemic in 1918–1919. In recent history, only a few public health events have prompted federal isolation or quarantine orders.
Exactly. And people seem to forget that these are FOR PROFIT businesses. Why would any business owner run an operation with an extreme amount of excess capacity, just in case? Doesn't happen...
Just saw this referenced in the 21 days of prayer thread; interesting that the countdown clock aligns to Constitution Day.
Rizzski’s recent post re: Spotify removing the Christian music genre would support this.

Still waking people up. I’ll take it.
Agreed. And while the OP link is agreeable on the surface, I can’t get behind anything that cites the nytimes, about anything. They are stirring the pot here.
