Those are some seriously out of touch requirements that could easily be fixed if anyone in power actually wanted to.

Yeah, I believe these are the requirements for PERM: https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-20/chapter-V/part-656/sub...

They are wildly out of date compared to how jobs are actually filled. Regardless of any other enforcement actions, this needs to be fixed.

I don't think it even needs congressional approval to change these. The DoL could do it.

How to "fix" it depends a lot on exactly what your goals are.
