Q1 / Q2 Filings

These are America's federal agencies, DOE national laboratories, state departments of transportation, public school systems, and city governments — entities funded entirely or primarily by American taxpayers. Every H-1B petition they file is a job that was not offered to an American worker, paid for with public money.
