RINOs gonna RINO.

[toddausauras]

NO.

[rdcbn1]

Why would existing H1B visa holders who are grandfathered into the pre 100K fee era wish to leave the country ?

[Alas Babylon!]

What about highly skilled American workers?

Where do THEY go?

[House Atreides]

“… seven members of Congress, including both Democrats and Republicans…”
***************************************************

Wow….THAT MANY! /sarc

Of course, one is too many IMHO.

[SunkenCiv]

And yet the first three words in the article? "A bipartisan group"

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

Dear Rhinos:

AMERICA First!

Not Your Wealth Donors First...

[marcusmaximus]

Stalking horses.

[dljordan]

Traitorous whores.

[JBW1949]

“...The lawmakers also warn that if U.S. companies cannot access the required talent, many highly skilled workers may return to countries such as India, China, Israel, or Europe to launch companies that compete directly against U.S. firms...”

So what these “lawmakers” are saying is that the United States does NOT have highly skilled workers....

[Texas Eagle]

The lawmakers also warn that if U.S. companies cannot access the required talent, many highly skilled workers may return to countries such as India, China, Israel, or Europe to launch companies that compete directly against U.S. firms.

Why aren't they doing that already?

[vivenne]

Ditto

[marcusmaximus]

They all need to GTFO and make way for American tech workers.

[escapefromboston]

100k one time fee isn’t even nearly enough
If anything make it an annual fee and It they are worried about small businesses they should double the fee for large companies too

[tumblindice]

Rino quislings.
It’s bad enough to have democrats hold a press conference stating they will violate federal law by trying to intimidate and impede ICE officers, now we have these backstabbers.

[NorthMountain]

A bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers is guaranteed to be exceptionally corrupt.

[Texas Eagle]

many highly skilled workers may return to countries such as India, China, Israel, or Europe

Europe is a country? 🤔

[stars & stripes forever]

[stateofit]

“could harm American innovation and competitiveness.“

Where would we be without a dozen social media platforms doing everything they can to capture our attention, log our every move, and create algorithms to sell personalized crap we don’t need. Or new blood tests which could tell we might have 1 of 50 possible cancers. $100,000 sounds cheap.

[ConservativeMind]

How many H-1Bs vote for ANY Republican?
