Immigration Voice

A national grassroots non-profit organization working to alleviate the problems faced by legal high-skilled future Americans.

[Immigration Voice @immivoice]

We commend President Trump for addressing the abuse of the H-1B system, where Indian immigrant workers are too often exploited for cheap labor by unscrupulous employers. Our concern, however, is for those who are already here, individuals who have built lives in the United States, purchased homes, paid taxes, and are raising children, many of whom are U.S. citizens. It is vital that this proclamation not be applied in a way that forces law-abiding, skilled immigrants and their families into deportation. We will continue working with the administration to ensure a path to permanent residence for these individuals, while also supporting reforms to prevent future abuses of the H-1B program.

[Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin]

The decision of whether to run for re-election has not been easy. I truly love the job of being a United States Senator.

But in my heart, I know it’s time to pass the torch.

So, I am announcing today that I will not be seeking re-election at the end of my term.

I’ll be hosting a Space to discuss potential actions for the country cap removal bill. If you're impacted by the green card backlog, caused by outdated, discriminatory country caps, that distorts the American labor market and harms both immigrant and American workers, join me. If you're ready to take action and make a difference instead of waiting for change, this is for you!

It is absolutely necessary to create a system that treats people equally under the law instead of discriminating and giving preferential treatment based on immutable characteristics like country of birth.

[Daniel Di Martino @DanielDiMartino]

In my new op-ed for @CityJournal I argue that we must end DEI in immigration.

In the war for merit and against "diversity, equity, and inclusion" the immigration system is the ultimate battle.

America's current H1B skilled visa system is a complete giveaway to corporate America, primarily big tech. We bring in skilled foreigners only when a company sponsors them. The system then keeps many of these workers in a legal limbo, often for decades. That whole time they are tied to their sponsor company. Workers tied down like this are less able to negotiate salary and benefits. That's the main reason big tech loves hiring H1Bs.

American workers, who then have to compete with these foreign workers, are thereby hurt by unfair labor competition. And most perversely of all, these highly-skilled foreign workers are not even free to innovate or start their own companies and create jobs; the whole time; they are stuck on the current waiting lists.

Like so much of current federal policy that needs unwinding, our current skilled immigration system benefits big business at virtually everyone else's expense. High-profit tech companies and Indian consulting firms are the biggest exploiters of this broken system.

Those advocating for more skilled immigration (I include myself in this group) need to be more clear on the need for complete reform of this broken system. Those who aren't either don't understand it or aren’t being honest.

💯 Country caps in the skilled green card category are unfair and distort the labor market, harming both American workers and immigrant workers. It would create a much better system for innovation and competitiveness if we:

1) Remove country caps on Employment-Based green cards to reduce the wrong incentives for hiring from backlogged nations

2) Reform the system to prioritize American workers

@RepMcCormick + @CongressmanRaja + @RepJayapal in the House, and in the Senate, @SenatorHick + @SenKevinCramer’s bipartisan bill does just that:

A similar bill passed the Senate unanimously with ALL 100 Senators agreeing to its passage in a bipartisan way.

[David Sacks @DavidSacks]

Point of clarification: Sriram didn’t say he wants to remove all caps on green cards. He said he wants to remove *country* caps on green cards. Right now, every country in the world gets allocated the same number of green cards, no matter how many qualified applicants it has. So applicants from India have an 11 year wait whereas applicants from many other countries have no wait at all. Sriram still supports skills-based criteria for receiving a green card, not making the program unlimited. In fact, he wants to make the program entirely merit-based. Supporting a limited number of highly skilled immigrants is still a prevalent view on the right. Sriram is definitely not a “career leftist”!

When no one else would lift a finger to help backlogged immigrants maintain their H4-EAD, Immigration Voice acted to fight the good fight. Today, the D.C. Circuit said we were right to do so and affirmed the legality of the #H4EAD program. Thank you - Sudarshana Sengupta and Anuj Dhamija for leading this effort to help an estimated half a million families stuck in the backlog. We are deeply grateful to our attorney Carl Goldfarb and the law firm Boies Schiller Flexner LLP for helping immigrant families to work and support their families while waiting for over 170 years of employment-based green card backlog. https://t.co/KB7W5y7RMr
