H-1B still needs to die, but they could just as easily open an office in Mumbai or Bangalore to accomplish the same thing.
These companies have so much turnover they wouldn't even have to lay people off really. As people leave, hire their replacement overseas. That's how a place I used to work moved their SQA team overseas. Opened a Bangalore office to "supplement, not replace" the SQA team. Then as the US engineers left they grew the size of the "supplemental" engineers until all that was left in the US was a "Lead SQA Engineer" (who was often an H1B Indian) who simply acted as a liaison between the Bangalore office and the other US-based Engineering departments.
Yeah, it's a dual problem. You need to stop them from offshoring jobs and hiring foreigners. If they don't like it they can sell their shit in the markets they hire from.

They cannot. There are limits to the size of employment in India before hitting Indian political/corruption hurdles. They’re all at limit.
