View on H-1B visa program relief and long term policy
The editorial argues the H-1B visa expansion offers short term relief for high tech firms but fails to fix deep issues from immigration controls. It notes a 96-1 Senate vote and eventual signing, creating 195000 skilled workers annually for three years with a six year visa and an exemption for U S master or PhD graduates. It warns of a privileged yet rigid class of workers and calls for broader immigration liberalization, despite political hurdles and interest group resistance.
