FWD.us President @TheToddSchulte issued the following statement today on the extension and expansion of President Trump’s executive order dramatically limiting immigration: fwd.us/news/fwd-us-st… #H1B #H1BVisa
“On the heels of a major loss at the Supreme Court – which sided with the overwhelming majority of the American public to reject President Trump’s efforts to deport #DACA recipients – President Trump is once again attempting to shift blame to immigrants..." — @TheToddSchulte
"...to distract from his terrible failure to handle the #COVID19 crisis. Massive restrictions to legal immigration – including restricting immigrants who contribute to medicine, science, and research in the United States..." @TheToddSchulte #H1B #H1BVisa
"...and who are working as we speak to develop treatments for coronavirus and other deadly diseases – will not only hinder efforts to save lives, but will prevent job creation and hurt our economy as our country struggles to recover" — @TheToddSchulte #H1B #H1BVisa
"Bipartisan majorities in Congress have repeatedly rejected the President’s multiple attempts to cut legal immigration. This is a full-frontal attack on American innovation and our nation’s ability to benefit from attracting talent from around the world." — @TheToddSchulte #H1B
“Three years ago, when unemployment was at 4%, the President proposed the RAISE Act, which attempted to slash legal immigration by more than 50%. Today, with unemployment at more than 13%, the President is enacting the same cuts through executive order." — @TheToddSchulte
"Both times they—against all actual evidence—claimed they were necessary for economic growth & to help native-born Americans. Economic conditions have changed dramatically, but the admin’s efforts to radically restrict legal immigration have remained constant." — @TheToddSchulte
“The Trump administration should stop trying to create and exploit crises to enact the largest cuts to legal immigration in a century. This is deeply harmful to America.” — @TheToddSchulte #H1B @H1BVisa fwd.us/news/fwd-us-st…
