Thank you for the clarification. I think it’s super important that these facts are presented accurately and I love the correction.
If we switched H-1B to a salary auction system I would additionally love if it came with a streamlined 2-year path to a green card, because if they won the salary auction and stayed on for two years we’d know these are truly the most valuable workers on the planet and we’d benefit from them joining our workforce permanently.
That said, I understand a complicated change like that would be a major uphill battle and not directly related to our subtopic.
H-1B is a non-immigrant (but dual intent) visa capped annually at less than 1/10 the level of the cap on immigrant visas, it has very little to do with “how much immigration we want”.
