Stop H1B abuse
H1B visa abuse by corporate America has created an underclass of tech workers who are now temp workers. No benefits, no vacation pay, no nothing. Wages are also very stagnant. Corporations act like spoiled children when they interview job candidates.
H1B creates the wrong incentives: Companies hire cheap workers, Indians and/or Americans, while the domestic workforce has no incentives to study tech in college because the prospects are dim.

Why is this important?
I and many fellow Americans face difficult prospects in IT tech fields. It's become "de rigueur" for corporations to hire H1B Indians instead of Americans. It's reverse-discrimination on the basis of nationality and visa status.
