New York Time 16 January 2015
“Those who oppose granting residency to these immigrants argue that it would deny resources to existing residents and citizens. But we’ve already invested in these students all through elementary and high school. Why not continue and get a return on that investment?
“There is rising demand for the talent these students possess. We grant roughly 85,000 H1B visas, for immigrants with special skills, to engineers to fill jobs here. In doing so, we overlook a generation of students who are deemed foreigners but who grew up here and plan to stay. When their visas expire, a majority of H1B visa holders will leave, and take the skills they developed with them. At a time when science and technology prowess will be critical to this country’s growth, we can’t afford to squander the homegrown brainpower of students like Oscar, Lorenzo, Luis and Cristian.”
OK, let’s chase Americans out – after investing in them … and train foreigners to bring the knowledge back to their countries and undermine the national economy from their homeland.
Republicans are working all angles to ensure the fall of America. It’s going to be fun watching the deniers crash and burn in the vehicle they knowingly built.
