Avram Morell, member of the Immigration Law Group, spoke to The New York Times for the article, "Federal Inquiry Into Indian Firm Puts a Focus on Widespread Visa Abuses." The article discusses the ways in which a federal investigation into visa use by Infosys, the Indian technology outsourcing giant, has brought to light widespread abuses in the information technology industry and prompted investigations into other foreign outsourcing firms.

The article focuses on how Congress has been raising visa fees for foreign outsourcing companies whilte at the same time immigration authorities have been imposing new regulations limiting the entry of foreign technology workers into the United States.

“In the past few years there has been a real assault by the federal government on the information technology consulting industry, and it has hit the Indian companies particularly hard,” Avram Morell told The New York Times.
