Optional Practical Training provides #intlstudents the opportunity to use their American education in a real-world setting, to the benefit of our economy. Keep an eye on this channel for news of an executive action that restricts #OPT. #IntlEd https://t.co/iRNIRFEoMi #saveOPT
"There is no evidence that foreign students... on [Optional Practical Training] reduce jobs for U.S. workers.” A @NFAP study by professor Madeline Zavodny found #intlstudents create jobs, not take them. https://t.co/EI0fBbpYXl #saveOPT #preserveOPT
From @NFAPResearch: "Why does the Trump administration need to use executive action to...enact emergency immigration measures if the president has said on the record that the U.S. economy is booming, will grow rapidly & is roaring back with jobs? https://t.co/R7n54ODULq #saveOPT
Ending or suspending #H1B and #OPT not only deeply hurts international students, but also would be catastrophic to the US research, economy, job creation, and its global competitiveness.

A reminder to Americans: International students on OPT work visa are NOT eligible for unemployment benefit but they PAY for it every month. International students also pump ~$50+ billion/year in the US economy. #SaveOPT

@SenatorDurbin @ChuckGrassley These reforms are important to protect US interests. Knowledgeable senators like you should also come forward to #SaveOPT. #OPT should be more transparent, but a blanket suspension will 1) increase unemployment, 2) reduce entrepreneurship, and 3) reduce real GDP.
