Yes, once they leave, they will put travel bans on employees. But, this is good news for our country.

Most of these families have children who are Americans. What do you propose we do about them? Are you going to deport the Indians and leave their children in internment camps?

?? Same thing as if a long term family from England came here and had kids? They'd go back to England and take their kids with them to live in England? Not sure how this is hard for you.

Anchor babyism doesn't work. It was never a real thing.

This is a good policy decision that should have bipartisan support

This. All these major international companies will just keep the labor overseas and expand their overseas subsidiary offices.

Why can't India do what China did? China has found a way to use their citizens who have US degrees.

And it's ironic to see Indians now crying foul. These people think they are superior to other minorities. Many of them support this admin. Lol I am not going to lose sleep.

They can take them with them.

I came here as F1 and then did OPT. I couldn't get anyone to sponsor me for H1B visa. I then met my husband and subsequently got a green card. I cannot speak for everyone, but when I was interviewing it was clear that some companies do have a preference for hiring students who need visa sponsorship. During the interviews you get the sense that you NEED them and they are confident if they extend you an offer, you will likely accept whatever package they will offer you.

I'm not a supporter of this admin but I 100% support this. I don't even think it goes far enough.

The biggest fraud committed among American students is that somehow they are qualified to do the jobs that Indian IT workers are doing. When Indians hold 70% of H1B visa that's clear evidence of monopoly..and we all know monopoly aren't monopolies because somehow they offer better products. No, monopolies are a result of market failure.

Hire American workers NOW. All H1B holders can go back and build their countries..they are very smart their countries need them more than us

All this means is that they will outsource to other countries. H1Bs exist because Americans aren't capable of doing the work. Not even your computer science grads.

Given your contempt for the HIB program, I take it you voluntarily left the US at some point and returned to your country of origin thereby freeing up a job for an American citizen?

PP here. I left the US when I was laid off because I couldn't find another job. I then came back to do my PhD. I'm defending my thesis next year and will be moving back home to Ivory Coast.

It's a proclamation, not an executive order. Only Congress can set visa fees, and create new visa categories (the latter relates to TrumpCard).

CS grads may have an easier time now.

We shouldn’t artificially be propping up mediocrity, while brilliant foreigners go to the rest of the developed world and bring their skills and intellect elsewhere.

To be fair, the private schools in India are much better than even US private schools. No teaching to the lowest common denominator equity BS, and the familirs are invested because they view it as their ticket out of poverty.

The colleges on the whole are much worse. Outside of IIT and maybe 20 other colleges, the quality drops to near zero.

Also, what private k-12s do you mean and what % of the population even gets to benefit?

The US ranks 18 out of 74 on the PISA international test while India is 73 (in fairness, they stopped participating because their scores are so bad).
