I know it is almost impossible to pass. Any thoughts? Good for highly skilled Indian tech works? https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=web&cd=&ved=0ahUKEwiIqL3f96DiAhXEGTQIHTJ9CIoQzPwBCAM&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nationalreview.com%2Fnews%2Ftrump-unveils-plan-for-merit-based-immigration-system%2F&psig=AOvVaw2EpAuzR0PWs-69pdVLB-Um&ust=1558126520817434
This will surely end trump’s presidency
How's that? This is what he ran on.
He’s just doing the campaign work for next elections, he and R’s know this is doomed to fail, but it will give trump an excuse to sell off that D’s didn’t cooperate ! Second it’s not about skilled immigration they’re already fucked up with RFE’s and denials more than ever ! So orange turd stfu !
The immigents are taking our jerbs! Let's make sure they are super skilled that will stop them from taking our jerbs!
I’m always baffled by anyone who disagrees with this policy.
Because it's built on intentions that don't actually help anyone and just end up fueling xenophobia.
AA, a racial quota system using US demograph to decide high tech immigrants being "over-presented". That is xenophobia.
Merit is just a dog whistle. Plus it’s obviously racially motivated
100% dog whistle politics. This is the first step in making it nearly impossible. My masking this as "making sure we only get the skilled ones", then the republicans can starting gradually making the requirements harder and harder.
By masking*
That’s just a silly caricature of republicans. They want skilled ones. Almost everyone wants skilled immigrants. We all descended, for the most part, from skilled immigrants. It’s very “American” to want skilled immigrants. Regardless of whether or not this is dog whistle politics, it’s dumb to demonize an entire group of Americans so inaccurately.
