Mr. Hastings should first learn what "H-1B" work visa program is before making useless punditry even after his thirty (3) years of "working" on H-1B "politics"!
📌 H-1B is a "regular" professional worker visa. Dah, everyone should know in 2025 since its founding in 1952 as H-1 visa!
❌ It not a "high value" jobs visa. There are other visa for that, O-1, P-1, J-1, L-1, etc.
❌ H-1B isn't a taxation program but a work visa program under Title 8!
📌 It is U.S. Congress which writes Statute not the President.
📌 H-1B is has only 85,000 annual quota for a country of $29.18 Trillion economy and 340 million people with over 139 Fortune 500 Global Companies in the U.S.
❌ H-1B is not a political or political punching bag, it is a program which fills talents gaps of Scientists, Engineers, Doctors, Entrepreneurs, Founders, Inventors, Nurses, and those who #getshitdone #wegetshitdone!
💕 Thanks to civil rights movement and all those who fought for civil rights of "all people" the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 was pass by 89th United States Congress and signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson. Before this, U.S. had a long history of citizenship exclusions, national origins formula, targeted national origin exclusions. etc.
