H1-B holders in the United States can rest assured that changes are soon coming which will bring both simplicity and certainty to your stay, including a potential path to citizenship. We want to encourage talented and highly skilled people to pursue career options in the U.S.

If they put a 200k floor on the salary for example. That would help. No?

Some theoretical possibility isn't solving anything, the fix is in.

Just a tweet teasing at an announcement coming shortly. Probably made the tweet after seeing or being briefed on the final draft or something. All previous comments of substance from Trump both before and after election have been promising.

I’m thinking we will be pleased with the final policy... Am beginning to regret posting a vague tweet many FReepers seem to like to jump to conclusions.

I have yet to meet a H1b who was not a socialist or at least a hard core anti Colonialist.

Maybe 1 in 1000 H1Bs meet this description - the other 999 are just cheap labor.

That pretty much matches my experience since 2003 ....

Trump, quit pretending the rino’s don’t have an agenda and that it is not readily apparent for those paying attention. Watch this, who are you going to believe, the rino republicans like Rob Portman (Mr. Sea Island Conspiracy) or your lying eyes. PERM Fake Job Ads defraud Americans to secure green cards fo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCbFEgFajGU#t=77

Trump should count up illegal entries in 2018 and reduce the number of H1B visas by that number, until further notice.

The H1B program is a source of illegal immigration.

The program has been so abused as to drive out Americans from such jobs.

Sessions was strong against H1B abuses. I’m missing him already

If one of the simplifications is to not lock an H1B visa holder applying for a green card to have to be with one sponsoring employer for the whole greencard application process it will greatly reduce the incentive companies have to bring them in. Corporations want indentured servants, not free agents.

Jump to conclusions? I’ve come to the conclusion a long time ago that our “leaders” are bringing the caste system to America and American citizens are the new untouchables.

The tweet seemed pretty clear and not in the Donald style. I am sure Trump didn’t write that tweet some Goldman Sachs WH butt munch probably wrote it.
