"Immigrants are a Big Force in Driving American Innovation" but h1b workers are not immigrants. They and their family have very little rights as workers in the US.

If the motivation is really to bring innovation to the US, cancel the h1b status and simplify the green card sponsorship via employment. But let's be real, that's not the goal. The goal is to bring servile underpaid peons to the valley to drag tech wages down.

I was an h1b for 4 years.
