Intel CEO Who Quit Trump Manufacturing Council Sought 8000 H-1B Workers for U.S. Jobs

A CEO who bailed on President Donald Trump’s now-defunct American Manufacturing Council imported workers to take jobs in the United States.

Intel CEO Brian Krzanich left Trump’s manufacturing council after he disagreed with the response to the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.

“I resigned because I want to make progress, while many in Washington seem more concerned with attacking anyone who disagrees with them,’’ Krzanich wrote in a blog post. “We should honor—not attack—those who have stood up for equality and other cherished American values.’’

But, as Trump’s manufacturing council was set up to bring back manufacturing and jobs to the U.S., Intel has been doing just the opposite since 2013.

Since 2013, the Intel Corporation attempted to import more than 8,000 H-1B workers. At the same time, as Breitbart News reported, the company under Krzanich’s direction laid off 12,000 Americans last year.

Tells everyone that the businesses were NOT out for the American people - just their bottom-line!

I'm liking Trump more every day!

The crowd publicly quitting various commissions and boards may find they, and their organizations, are waiting by the phone and mailbox while competitors get a chance to catch the President's ear as events move forward.

Bad move, elitists.

I will vote Trump again no doubt about it. I will vote republican before I ever vote democrat but out of mostly fear I will switch to independent.
