Blanche says a company would warrant investigation if it discriminated against American workers in favor of foreign workers. He names Microsoft and Adobe while describing that condition.
“if a company, even including Microsoft, Adobe or any other, discriminates against an American worker in favor of someone on the other side of the world, that company has violated the trust of the federal government and the American people and will be investigated.”
