woke right --> 😭😭 🚨 Marco Rubio wrt immigration policy changes "We are modernizing the immigration system for the 21st century...and in some ways, may prove to be MORE beneficial to those from India who seek to come to the US to work and innovate"

@ShadesOfBlueAn1 💯
Most of them have no understanding of basics of immigration law.

live look of the woke right learning about non immigrant visa, dual intent, adjustment of status, greencard backlog, consular processing

@krishna_vssr But they do. If that job wasn’t taken by an H-1B or OPT, it would be available to American or new grads.
English
I feel awful for the guy but 20 years on a “guest worker” program? It should have never even come to this point.
H-1B was sold to Americans as a temporary visa to fill short-term shortages — not a 20-year indentured-servitude pipeline that traps people here while displacing U.S. workers.
“Temporary” shouldn’t turn into a parallel society of employer-dependent foreigners who can’t easily leave, can’t complain, and live in constant fear of bureaucracy.
This is the scam.
America First means temporary actually means temporary.
No more turning guest worker programs into permanent cheap labor pipelines.
End the abuse. Put American workers first.

This H-1B worker has lived in the US for nearly 20 years and built a family here. His mom was dying in India. To visit her, he would need to wait months to book a consular appointment--with the soonest one available likely being scheduled one year out. He made the difficult choice of not visiting his dying mom because leaving without an appointment would mean separation from his children, job, and his other obligations. Much of the commentary around immigration focuses on how such bureaucratic burdens undermine immigrants’ ability to contribute and innovate. But we must remember that this red tape also prevents these people from being fully engaged with their own lives and meaningfully present in the lives of others. This matters too, and these seemingly non-economic problems will eventually translate into economic costs. If America is no longer a place where people feel empowered to be the best versions of themselves as they celebrate, struggle, and grieve, it ceases not just being the land of opportunity, but also the land of dignity and purpose. linkedin.com/posts/gautam-d…

There are 1.2 MILLION legal immigrants waiting for approval on their adjustment of status green card applications. And USCIS says we're not processing you. We're taking your money to pay for our new police force. Thanks. GTFO.

@SanDiegoKnight Do not worry Hany. I'm not sure if Indians will go back but Americans jobs are surely going to India based on current trends.

Sridhar Vembu just dropped a truth bomb 🔥
“Indians in America on visas ….choose self-respect over green card. Come home and build Bharat!”
Brain drain stops when we stop running. Time to make India proud 🇮🇳💪
Who’s with Vembu? Reply “Coming home” 👇

Sridhar Vembu asks Indians on US visas to choose ‘self-respect’ over green card, urges them to return home hindustantimes.com/trending/sridh…

@SanDiegoKnight Again if that is case, please ask your goverment to ban it. Temporary workers are simply following the law. Law allows them to apply for green card. If you don't like it, please ask congress to pass the law to ban it.
English
@krishna_vssr I understand but it was supposed to be a guest worker program, not a permanent job vehicle.
English
@SanDiegoKnight You are thinking it wrong way. The job was not 'taken away' as you say it. It was 'given' by American company based their skills. They followed every law. As I said, please ask your goverment to change laws if you don't like them. Do not hate/scape goat people for following them.
English
@SanDiegoKnight No temporary guest worker comes to America wanting to replace Americans. They come to work hard, build a better life for their families, and contribute to this country. They love America, respect its people, and are grateful for the opportunities here. Most are law-abiding.
English
@SanDiegoKnight Temporary guest workers don’t want to be temporary. They love America and contribute meaningfully to this country. They also don’t want American grads - including their own kids - left behind. Don’t scapegoat hardworking people. Hold the government and corporations accountable.

Woke right:
H1Bs are everywhere, Costco is filled with them, Raj from doordash is H1B, cab driver is H1B, all Indian looking people are H1B
Data:
Typical concentration of H1Bs in any metropolitan area is around 0.5-1%. Even the highest is around 7%
English
@SanDiegoKnight Then, do you think the real problem is the people on long-term visas, or the bad policies that essentially force them to remain on one?
English
Gosh!!!
I though this man @PlumbNick was a little reasonable. I’m proven wrong!! He too chooses to target kids, of H1B visa holders, just because he wanted to make his point. Can we leave kids alone??
English
congratulations @karpathy!!!

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

@alexleestine303 @AttyStevenBrown should non-immigrant visa holder pay taxes ?
English
@AttyStevenBrown You do realize H-1B is a nonimmigrant visa? They should not be getting resident benefits.
English
H-4 in-state tuition is not a “loophole.” It is literally how many state residency laws are intentionally written.
Take Texas as an example. In Texas, domicile for in-state tuition generally requires living in the state for at least 12 consecutive months while establishing and maintaining a residential presence through things like full-time employment, operating a business, or owning residential property. For H-1B/H-4 families, the H-1B parent’s employment and residence in Texas are typically what establish domicile, and the H-4 child derives residency from the parent.
Notably, the 12 month domicile requirement also applies to citizens. So, a citizen from Oklahoma can’t move to Dallas and claim in-state tuition right away.
And practically speaking, some H-4 kids have lived in the U.S. for years, attended local public schools, and had parents paying taxes in the state long before they ever apply to college.

A major loophole is being exploited in Texas When Indians come over on a H-1B Visa, it’s not just them They are then able to put in H-4 Visas and bring their kids and spouse Their kids are then enrolled in American schools as residents not international students, this bypasses guardrails at colleges that make sure there aren’t too many international students changing the demographics of the school This is why some schools are completely overrun with foreigners tens of thousands of H-4 visas are issued annually, with India being the top country This is a real and widely used pathway, though it is legal under current US immigration rules H-4 children are treated as residents for enrollment purposes in most states, including Texas. They attend free public schools like any other child living in the district. They are not classified as international F-1 students, so they do not count toward international student caps or pay higher “international” tuition at the K-12 level After high school, they can often qualify for in-state tuition. They apply as domestic students not international We have to change our laws to close this loophole, especially knowing the H-1B Visa program is being abused to drastically

@WallStreetApes This guy has gone full racist mode against the Indian community. He had zero issues working with Indians and happily taking a fat salary from AWS. But the moment he got laid off, he turned against them, somehow blaming Indians for his job loss instead of AWS.
