Thank you, dear Crown Prince @PahlaviReza, for championing talented Iranians educated in U.S. universities.
We respectfully request that @SecMullinDHS and @USCIS#LiftTheHold on legal, secular Iranian STEM students, engineers, and scholars who entered legally, pay taxes, and contribute to the American institutions where they were trained.
As @charliekirk11 highlighted, Persians/Iranians are among the most successful and hardest-working immigrant groups in U.S. history — achieving excellence through merit.
These individuals share American values of meritocracy and freedom and are ready to give back to the country that invested in their education.
We also kindly ask @elonmusk, @BillAckman, and @marklevinshow to raise their voices on this important issue.
God bless America!

Dear @SecMullinDHS , we are all aware of the Islamic Republic and their influence operations. But please ask you to not throw the baby out with the bath water and consider Iranians that are being threatened by this regime who are in limbo on their US immigration status! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Mr. @SecMullinDHS, as you step into your new position I ask you to provide particular consideration to the status of Iranian students and professionals in the United States who may be at risk of immigration complications due to Presidential Proclamations 10949 and 10998. Many of these individuals fled the Islamic Republic’s because they believe in freedom, democracy, and the values this country stands for. They are also contributing to the United States every day.
They arrived in this country legally, followed the rules, respect this country and its system of law and order and are among the most dedicated and accomplished contributors to American society. I ask that you and your department consider these factors, plus the personal and political risk many of these young people would face if sent back to the criminal regime in Iran.
America’s concerns for its national security and the threat posed by the Islamic regime to the homeland are entirely justified. To that end, my office stands ready to provide you and your colleagues with regime operatives, propaganda agents, and influence networks for investigation and removal from the United States.
Thank you for your consideration.
Next time @Haleaziz has a dialogue with David Bier (CATO), he should ask Bier why he likes to pit Indians against the Iranians, who have been the most vocal against bill S386, and why he thinks they are all "pizza makers" instead of skilled-workers.
It's rhetoric like this from David Bier (CATO) that has encouraged H-1Bs from India to resort to harassment tactics against anyone who speaks against their racist S386 immigration bill. Has Bier spoken against the hateful tactics used against @SenatorDurbin by his supporters?
A person as uninformed on the H-1B program as you has little recourse than to throw cheap insults.
The only thing you want is cheap labor. The more compliant & more exploitable the better for you & your corporate ilk. That is the only value you see in Indians coming on the H-1B.
Don't Kill U.S. Employment Visas and EB-5 with S. 386 / H.R. 1044 - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/UKInDIZIdA via @Change. Thank you @mshahlawyers for getting this word out.
Congress is about to slip in the OMNIBUS spending bill a horrible IMMIGRATION bill (HR 1044)that will end immig. through employment for decades except for Indian nationals. If they can pass bad laws like HR 1044 DEMAND inclusion of DACA/TPS NOW in Omnibus.
In a letter to the Congressional Leadership, AllofUs warns of the despicable efforts to attach S386/HR1044 to the Covid-19 relief or appropriation bill. Read below.
