"Trump is now casting a shadow over the tech industry’s use of high-skilled foreign labor. "<p>Yet another rabidly anti-Trump article from Vox media. No surprise. But really? "high-skilled?" One of the biggest complaints I hear from the tech industry is about rampant abuse of the H1B visa program and (in many cases) the <i>low</i> quality of work it continues to bring in!<p>"it’s uncertain whether he’ll heed the advice of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and others to allow more foreign-born computer scientists and software engineers to fill US jobs."<p>How is this a bad thing? Is there a huge problem with trying to fill those jobs with American scientists and engineers first?<p>"and that tech companies will “have to go through more hoops to prove there’s not an American that can get the job.”"<p>Again, can someone explain why this is such a huge problem?<p>"The CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, is an immigrant. As are Google co-founder Sergey Brin and Microsoft chief Satya Nadella."<p>Yes, but were they H1B hires? I don't think so.
