Vance on H1B

[Anonymous]

Damnit I hate when Vance says something I actually agree with. Insanity to still be handing out H1Bs for CS work right now given the layoffs and difficulty of CS majors in finding jobs. Tech firms can do some internal training if they need to bridge skill gaps - just like most other companies do.

Vance: "You see some big tech companies where they'll lay off 9,000 workers, and then they'll apply for a bunch of overseas visas. And I sort of wonder; that doesn't totally make sense to me.“

From article…
“Microsoft is facing mounting scrutiny over its use of the H-1B visa program after announcing a wave of layoffs in July that will impact approximately 9,000 employees globally.

The latest cuts, affecting about 4 percent of the company's total workforce, follow two earlier rounds in May and June, which together eliminated around 8,000 positions. In total, Microsoft has laid off nearly 16,000 employees so far this year, out of its global headcount of 228,000.

In the aftermath of the layoffs, social media posts began circulating on X, formerly Twitter, alleging that Microsoft has submitted applications for more than 6,000 H-1B visas since October, the start of the current fiscal year. While that specific figure has not been independently verified, official data shows that Microsoft filed 9,491 H-1B applications during the previous fiscal year, all of which were approved.”

I thought his tech bro buddies wanted more H1Bs.

He realizes his wife was born in the USA when her parents were still citizens of India on temporary visa status right?

They do, but if Vance wants to win the base in 2028, he needs the GOP base to support him, and the base is only going to be angrier in four years after Trump fails to make a material dent in the immigration problems in the US. Stopping the bleeding is no longer enough, the base demands improvement. Trump is constitutionally incapable of delivering, so Vance better be ready if he wants to win the nomination.

That's different because that's his wife's family, just like chain migration should be banned, but Melania's family chain migration is different because she's white.

Some of us wouldn't want Melania because she's from parts of Europe worse than Ireland or southern Italy.

You know that Trump said he wants to give green cards to foreign students, right?

"[What] I want to do, and what I will do, is you graduate from a college, I think you should get, automatically as part of your diploma, a green card to be able to stay in this country. That includes junior colleges, too," Trump said in the episode, which was taped on Wednesday.

But, she's a softcore porn model, and MAGA likes that. So, it doesn't matter what you want.

+1 JD’s Indian family watched his three kids so his wife could work at a law firm and fund their existence until MAGA bought and paid for him.

The orange clown has no idea what is going on. He is not in charge, people.

You see excess immigration hurts recent immigrants the most. They are the most impacted. It's called brain waste. My wife for example can't get a job in her CS field had to switch to a receptionist.
