“I didn’t hear anything about Trump extending the same offer to foreign students with a two year community college degree in political science.”
Guess you didn’t listen to the video. He said “Junior Colleges”. I did not hear “political science”, though, so I assumed he meant any subject as long as you graduate. Women’s Studies In Timbuktu? (He may have said it later. I admit I turned it off ‘cause I was so mad.)
Re listened to the whole thing. What can I say -I was mis informed.
Massie was spot on and Trump needs to revise his policy to be a bit more selective to ensure that only highly qualified people who bring special talents to the table are included in the H1B visa program.
This was the original intent of the program back in the day and the program worked extremely well. I
It was also very difficult to get even a highly qualified MIT or Stanford level foreign PhD grad through the system and the track record of these early H1B recipients is amazing.
That said, the H1B visa program has been badly abused to bring in large numbers of unqualified and problematic workers in recent years and needs to be reformed.
