But the TPP says that signatory countries must be allowed to bid, so I am sure there is going to be a mechanism for that.
H-1b is not the only type of work permit - here is a page about this.

I do think Hillary was asking to increase the number of H-1B visas, right now 65,000 is the limit.

Also, looks like the new Congress may raise the 65,000 limit to 300,000 or more....
