With due respect, how would they apply their talents if there's no path for legal residency with the current immigration system and you happen to be the ONE senator who blocked immigration reform that passed the house.
What kind of hypocrisy is this @SenatorDurbin ?
RAM Speed 386 retweeted
Sorry to say but protesting without any specific narrow target goal in mind is a waste of everyone's energy. And don't please tell me that it's to raise awareness. People without any such protests were able to pass the bill in 2019. When Durbin put a block, protests came in handy. Protests should be used as a surgical tool not for the sake of it.

Deeply saddened by the passing of @drsampat Dr. Sampatkumar Shivangi, a distinguished Indian-American physician and dedicated leader in AAPI. His contributions to the medical community and his advocacy for Indian-American physicians will always be remembered. Heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones. #RIP #DrSampatShivangi

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.
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.

Its diabolical to complain about the "transactional nature of immigration" when even people who really want to become Americans LEGALLY are put in 15-20 years long (and increasing exponentially) #greencardbacklog for nothing other than where they were born.

Guys,
Not sure if you know this but the Edakunni v. Mayorkas settlement that mandated the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to bundle together the processing of specific forms for H-1B, H4 & H4-EAD will expire on January 18th, 2025.
This means only H-1B will be approved and H4/H4-EAD will die in the long wait leading to job loss for your respective spouse.
Very soon even H4-EAD will be on the chopping block. The folks on the sidelines hoping that everything will be just fine are living is the state of denial.
@immivoice was on the fore front of the battle to save H4-EAD program but they cannot do it alone without your support.
So please join them in this fight and please please contribute.

Guys, Everyone who is currently engaged as a keyboard warrior on X advocating for the equality for high skilled legal immigrants and standing against the most recent backlash coming from anti-immigrant and racist groups, please note that along with social media advocacy, its important to get engaged in grassroots advocacy.
The only organization that has the history of successful grassroots advocacy is Immigration Voice. All the new keyboard warriors please visit the IV website to get more information on how you can get involved.

Social media advocacy does help but its effect can be short lived. We all need to join hands together to make sure that our voices are heard and bring in much needed reforms that not only help provide the much needed relief for high skilled legal immigrants but also protect the rights of American Workers from the abuse of current immigration system.

He has never changed his mind. He supports legal immigration and a faster pathway to green cards for hardworking immigrants. He also recognizes that H1B needs to be reformed.

New Year, New Hope! 🎉 As we welcome 2025, let's wish for a future where high-skilled legal immigrants no longer face Green Card backlogs. Here's to a new administration that prioritizes reform and recognizes the value of our contributions. #Immigration #GreenCard

Great clarity from @rupasubramanya on the attack against @sriramk. Removing the country cap on green cards would boost US innovation and entrepreneurship. Let's embrace talent, not racism. Read more at @TheFP thefp.com/p/rupa-subramanya-…
Skilled immigrants have fueled American success, making it a global leader. Now, the nativist MAGA wing threatens this—not for economic reasons, but out of hatred for Indians. In defence of @sriramk for @TheFP .

President @realDonaldTrump, your words make us believe! Thank you! MAGA 🇺🇸
“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them. I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program.”

💯 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:
congress.gov/bill/118th-cong…
A similar bill passed the Senate unanimously with ALL 100 Senators agreeing to its passage in a bipartisan way.
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”!

Ignorance is unacceptable, but we can overcome it through knowledge by paying attention to what the esteemed Senator Mike Lee has explained. I urge you to visit the website on our profile and listen to his compelling speech on the Senate floor. As recently pointed out on @X, misinformation spreads far too quickly compared to the truth. You must seek out the facts. We can educate you.

That was aptly said, and this is specifically what we are advocating for. Hear it as explained by Senator Lee: greencardus.org
