1. Putting America First Requires H-1B Visa Reform.

Author

Neufeld, Jeremy

Subjects
*WORK visas, *FOREIGN workers, *SKILLED labor, *BORDER barriers, *UNDOCUMENTED immigrants, *GREEN cards, *ORGANIZATIONAL citizenship behavior
Abstract

The article discusses the ongoing debate surrounding the H-1B visa program, which is America's primary visa for skilled workers. The program's current method of selecting applicants through a randomized lottery has led to concerns about its effectiveness in bringing in top talent while also allowing for the entry of lower-skilled workers. Various reform proposals have been suggested, including ranking applicants by salary and age to prioritize sectors likely to contribute to innovation. Implementing these reforms could significantly boost America's gross domestic product without increasing the number of available slots in the program. [Extracted from the article]

2. Ditch the Green-Card Lottery.

Author

Richardson, Christopher

Subjects
*LOTTERIES, *GREEN cards, *WORK visas
Abstract

The article discusses the proposal to reallocate 55,000 visas from the Diversity Immigrant Visa program, also known as the green-card lottery, to employment-based visa programs. The authors argue that the current immigration system is outdated and that increasing visas for skilled immigrants is necessary. While some Democrats support the green-card lottery as a path for Africans to gain citizenship, the authors suggest that reallocating these visas could help reduce the backlog of employment-based green-card cases. The article emphasizes the need for bipartisan agreement to reform the legal immigration system. [Extracted from the article]

Author

Dhume, Sadanand

Subjects
*INDIANS (Asians), *FOREIGN investment visas, *IMMIGRANTS
Abstract

The article discusses the phenomenon of skilled migrants from China and India leaving their countries to seek opportunities in the United States. Despite the perception of China and India as rising economic powers, a significant number of their citizens, including the well-educated and wealthy, are eager to emigrate. The article highlights the increase in illegal crossings at the US-Mexico border by Indians and Chinese, as well as the strong flow of legal migration from these countries. It also mentions that China and India are among the largest sources of international migrants globally. The reasons for this emigration include concerns about governance, pollution, tax harassment, and inadequate infrastructure in India, while in China, it is attributed to Xi Jinping's crackdown on the private sector and a desire for a Western passport as an insurance policy. The article concludes that the emigration patterns raise questions about the inevitability of China and India's rise as superpowers. [Extracted from the article]
