Comment from International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE)

Summary: The International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), a labor union, supports the proposed increase in H-1B wage levels but argues that the rule should establish a wage floor at the median prevailing wage rather than the proposed levels. They also call for stricter enforcement against employer misclassification, restrictions on third-party outsourcing firms, and protections against exploitative recruitment practices.
