SOME of those districts COULD be winners for conservative candidates.. but not all of them HAVE conservative candidates
alas!
Opportunity Knocks, but we have to Open the Damned Door!
(many foreigners have conservative values...they could vote this way...if reached out to... with and by conservative candidates...that cared to run...and run seriously... )
Not meant to flame but can you name a few districts that conservatives can flip?
Aye, there’s the rub.
Getting good people to actually run.
These days, who wants to put up with the arrows that get shot at them for daring to run for political office?

You state: “many foreigners have conservative values” but sadly that does not seem to translate very well into GOP votes. Wish it did, but in the 2016 election where there was a very clear choice, 72% of Asian Americans voted for Hillary. Not sure about Hispanics outside of Cubans...
Also, many immigrants seem to be inclined to vote for “like” immigrants—so unless it is possible to find Indian-American or Chinese-American conservatives who can run in respective districts, I don’t think districts with large numbers of legal immigrants will necessarily vote GOP since the majority seems to be supporting Dems/Big Government. Not sure how well GOP manages identity politics—and really don’t want them playing that game.
~~Chinese and Indian were ranked first and second in Legal immigration in 2017.

~~Did not find a breakout for Chinese Americans, but 72% of Asian Americans voted for Hillary. As I said, they had a clear choice and went with the big government.

~~70% of Indian Americans vote Dem.

So there may be some opportunity, but sadly, seems to be an uphill slog IMHO
Oh please
Name one
