Employers encouraged by proposal to fix U.S. immigration chaos
"We are encouraged by the momentum on these important issues," said
Microsoft general counsel and executive vice president Brad Smith.
Companies and business groups of all stripes have come out in favor of
immigration reform, hoping to tap the immigrant labor force that has long
been a key to growth of the U.S. economy.
But Smith said Microsoft needs to see the details of the legislation, which
has not yet been crafted, and that it hopes the reform will expand the so-
called H-1B visa system for highly skilled workers.
The government now offers a quota of 65,000 H-1B visas per year, a number
unusually met in a few weeks of applications and far fewer than the U.S.
technology sector says it needs to innovate and remain competitive.
The eight senators said that any immigrant who receives an advanced degree
in the United States in science, technology, engineering or math (
collectively known as STEM), should be given a green card, shorthand for
legal residence and work permit.
"It makes no sense to educate the world's future innovators and
entrepreneurs only to ultimately force them to leave our country at the
moment they are most able to contribute to our economy," the senators said. | m*******n
