I know the topic of the hour is the Gold Card announced by Trump. But whatever happened to automatically giving Green Cards to people graduating from a US college? Are we still ‘All-In’ for this?
US Embassy in INDIA -Indians are the biggest source of students in US's world class education INDIANS -Take huge loans to study in USA TRUTH -Immigration system is third class -No easy path to work visa -H1B Lottery, Green card backlog make you BONDED labor
Here’s the thing: Indians are rising. And that is actually why anti-Indian sentiment is rising. Not because Indians are so weak, but because Indians are once again becoming strong. CEOs of companies. Leaders of countries. Founders and investors. Doctors, writers, professors.…
H-1B Folks in SF Bay Area , let’s connect! I’m planing to get H-1Bs at Apple together. Let’s get together and raise the GC country cap issue. - troublemaker at apple dot com
This will undoubtedly accelerate the exodus of highly skilled immigrant talent stuck in century long backlog and immigration limbo. Excluding children of birth tourists and illegal immigrants is one thing, but sidelining those legally building a life in America—and driving its…
HUGE Immigration News! The birthright citizenship executive order Trump signed today means children of non-citizens or non-permanent residents will not be US citizens. Children of Indians who are in the 100+yr green card wait WILL NOT be US citizens. Applies from Feb 20, 2025.

This is exactly correct. When the problem became apparent, they included provisions in the American Competitiveness in the 21st Century Act (AC21) that allow essentially unlimited extensions of the H-1B rather than address the actual problem. If someone from India has been in…
The H-1B was designed to be 6 years. In 2000, employers were struggling because the H-1Bs they had sponsored for green cards were facing a backlog due to the green card caps on each country and their H-1B would expire before they got their green card. Rather than abolishing the…

Reforming and expanding the H-1B visa is important, but so is fixing the employment-based green card system, which is even more vital. Here are simple steps to reform the employment-based green card and boost merit-based immigration
Since people are digging up old tweets, here’s one of @sriramk working with me and @elonmusk to restore free speech on Twitter and get MAGA their accounts back. Many were grateful at the time. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!
It comes down to this: do you want America to WIN or do you want America to LOSE. If you force the world’s best talent to play for the other side, America will LOSE. End of story.
Number of illegal aliens/year: 3+ million. Number of employment visas/year: 140k. As a start, maybe we should focus on the 95% where we all agree.
Some very simple math: if a country has 5% of the world's population and ability is evenly distributed, then 95% of the people who are best at any given thing will be born abroad.
To all Indians out there. I know it’s been a tough day. You have seen the face of racism. But know that you belong, and together we will defeat the bigots. They do not represent who we are.
All day I’ve seen rightists complain about Indians in tech, not a single one was actually in tech. Just found out “US Tech Workers” group is just a guy not in the industry who doesn’t like immigrants. It’s all resentful losers looking for an excuse to be racist, trying to destroy…
