We should demand voting rights for long-term legal residents who are in the USA for 10 years and have an approved green card petition,
and end country-of-birth discrimination in granting green cards to those who are in USA from 5 years.

A new rule need to treat all workers who have been employed in the U.S. for the past 7 years as ‘U.S. workers.’ and adjust their immigration status if their priority date is earlier than the date for ‘All Chargeability Areas Except Those Listed.'

The USA should prioritize green cards for people who have lived here for decades.
Too many long-term residents have no voting rights, while some who arrived recently already have a voice in government.
People often blame others for their struggles and target whoever is easiest.
But hate backfires—those who spread it become expendable first.
In the end, they’re often the first to be pushed out by the same systems they try to please.
The U.S. immigration system is broken and traps people in long-term visa dependency.
Companies benefit from this system, while workers face uncertainty and limited rights.
Stop blaming workers.
It’s time to push Congress to fix the laws that created this problem.

bro slowly getting the hang of things
Indians: F1 --> OPT --> H1 --> I-140 approved -->keep renewing H1 --> 20 years later --> green card
Others: F1 --> OPT --> I-140 approved --> green card --> 5 years later --> citizens --> post on X that 70% H1B goes to Indians
Correction: The H1 visa pre-1990 INA bill were not 'dual intent'. The H-1B and L-1 visas were made into dual intent visas in 1990, not later - I mistakenly claimed they were changed in 2003 to this class.
The F-1 visa is still not a dual intent visa, nor is the J-1 (exchange visa). Interestingly the 0-1 (extraordinary talent) isn't either explicitly, congress never made it one. But our govt treats it as a dual intent visa anyway.
Dual intent means one can apply for permanent immigrant status - Green Card - while on the temporary visa.
The intent of my post remains. Why are these visas called 'temporary' when they are endlessly extended while a Green Card application is in process? They function as pathways to permanent immigration.
Be Clear: Just because temporary visa is granted and the immigrant can 'intent' to immigrate permanently, they have no reason to expect to be able to immigrate. Yet to hear them talk, the idea that all of them cannot do so is incredibly unfair.
The idea of how any of this effects American workers never enters into the picture.
It makes no difference to an American citizen who's been replaced by a foreign worker what visa their replacement has been issued.
H-1B, L-1, J-1, O-1, Green Card - it's all the same to the American worker.

the rant is always about cancelling "work visas", never about visas/greencards based on family, diversity etc.
"work" visas/greencards are a minority vis-a-vis total legal immigration, about 10-15% or so
"work" visas overwhelmingly go to those with higher education, salary, low welfare, low crime.
while other visas/greencards go to those who are paid way lower, overwhelmingly use welfare and commit crimes at highe rate
so what visa/greencard type should actually be cancelled to "avoid becoming another 3rd world country" ?
Some may laugh on Visa slave because law discriminate them on brith country,
But as you know, company love them.
Support what is right, as it benefit all

imagine going to the DMV at 8am
you wait for your turn
its 9am, 1 hour, and the queue has barely move
you wait some more
its 10am, you are starting to get impatient
line's not moving at all now
now it's 12pm, still very little movement
now you are starting to question your life choices
should you go back and come another day, or stay?
you have already invested 4 hours into this
maybe you should stay a little longer?
clock strikes 3pm, you are really getting mad now
another bloke strolls in at 3:15pm
he gets immediate service
out by 3:25pm
you are still there at the DMV and its 4:53pm

The USA is the only democratic country in the world where you may have to live as a lifetime indentured worker, with no citizenship granted based on years of residency.

While the woke right sh!ts on 85k per year H1Bs, there is a greencard category that no one talks about.
About half a million greencards each year. No labor market test. Folks can directly go on welfare.
And it is uncapped, meaning technically there is no limit to how many greencards can be given each year.

"H1B is a sliver of a sliver"
When even @FoxNews is completely fed up of all H1B lies made up by groypers like @vrilliumlive and perpetuated online for purely political benefit by the likes of @RonDeSantis @jamesfishback and @CaseyPutsch
Learn how the U.S. created modern indentured servitude.
The U.S. brings in talent on various temporary visas without differentiating by country of birth. Once here, people are promised permanent residency if they meet the requirements.
President #Trump,
President Lincoln ended slavery, but modern slavery is back in the USA:
lifetime indentured servitude.
The trap and threat are that the U.S. administration can strand you at any time because of your country of birth (world’s most populous country)
President #Trump,
It’s good that you are reforming the #H1B program by weighting applicants based on salary.
Please also reform employment-based green cards using the same approach— salary and total gross earnings reported in U.S. tax filings.
