You misunderstood. I support him, but the H1-B reversal is devastating, and could cost him the Sessions endorsement. It was one of his principal arguments against Cruz, now gone. I just don't get it. Looking for Silicon Valley cash in the general?
Sessions is not going to bail because Trump has said before some top brainpower will be encouraged/allowed to stay.
TRUMP ON IMMIGRATION: Increase prevailing wage for H-1Bs. We graduate two times more Americans with STEM degrees each year than find STEM jobs, yet as much as two-thirds of entry-level hiring for IT jobs is accomplished through the H-1B program. More than half of H-1B visas are issued for the program’s lowest allowable wage level, and more than eighty percent for its bottom two. Raising the prevailing wage paid to H-1Bs will force companies to give these coveted entry-level jobs to the existing domestic pool of unemployed native and immigrant workers in the U.S., instead of flying in cheaper workers from overseas. This will improve the number of black, Hispanic and female workers in Silicon Valley who have been passed over in favor of the H-1B program. Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities.
He’s going to get major blowback from American IT workers.
H1-B has nothing to do with illegal alien invasion. It has to do with college graduates coming legally. We want productive , educated , controlled legal immigration. Calm down.
