Economic war is modern war
Employers attest to the government that foreign hires will not hurt American workers, and no one checks. Our True Labor Market Test turns that honor system into evidence.

for DOL to certify an H-1B labor attestation, reviewed only for completeness

attestations verified to prove Americans were actually sought
The gap we close
Flagship
Today an H-1B labor attestation is certified in days and reviewed only for completeness and obvious errors. Nothing proves Americans were sought. The Test makes every foreign hire verifiable before an American is displaced.
Today: the honor system
Displacement is found years later, if ever.
With the Test: verified evidence
An American is hired
The default outcome when a capable or trainable American applies.
Train-an-American
If a foreign hire is truly needed, an American apprentice is paired from day one and takes over the role.
Certified skills gap
Only when no qualified or trainable American applies. Now it is proven, not merely claimed.
Any filing the record contradicts is flagged, with evidence.
The employer posts the role with the same title, duties, location, and wage it will attest to the government.
Every registered American who can do the job now, or learn it fast, is notified. Ability beats years of experience.
The employer must answer every American applicant with a job-related reason. No more silent rejections.
Every step is written to a timestamped, tamper-evident record keyed to the employer's federal filing.
BULWARK compares the record to LCA and PERM filings, layoffs, and contracts, and flags any filing it contradicts.
Two systems, one mission
The registry and the True Labor Market Test. Americans register with an Ability Profile built from real work, not years of experience. Employers post before they file. Rapid 30 to 60 day upskilling sprints and Train-an-American apprenticeships close the gap.
The intelligence engine. BULWARK links public labor, immigration, layoff, and federal contract data to the employers behind them, scores displacement risk, and writes evidence briefs where every statement cites its source.
The employer is the target
No adversary wants an armed war with the United States, so the fight has moved to the economy. We go after conduct, never people, and we put the evidence in the hands of those who can act.
Washington has started to act
DOL launched Project Firewall in September 2025. On October 8, 2026, the Vice President's Anti-Fraud Task Force suspended two major employers from the PERM green card program. The Test makes these strikes permanent.
Companies that lay off Americans, make them train their replacements, and attest to the government that no one was harmed.
Labor intermediaries that bench, underpay, and rotate visa workers through client sites to undercut American wages.
Talent programs and tech-transfer schemes that target the American workforce as a strategic objective.
Knowledge, aptitude, and drive matter more than years on a resume. Most jobs can be learned in months. We match Americans on what they can do and how fast they can learn, then upskill them to close the gap.
