@IndianTechGuide Bro, you shouldnāt cover this news. Because this will kick start a wave of anti India racism again. You might get the engagement, but India will get a bad name. Itās better to delete this now before itās viewed by millions.

@IndianTechGuide Politics will make it sound like either saviour or sellout. Doubling H-1B to 130k will power US tech, but India gains too...skilled workers get global exposure and remittances. Win-win.

@IndianTechGuide Great move by Congressman Krishnamoorthi to boost H-1B visas and fuel innovation However, ensuring job security for American workers remains a critical concern.

@IndianTechGuide I hope this doesnāt succeed. Let India develop its own high tech industry instead of forcing its high tech workers to come to the United States to find opportunities that will put American high tech professionals out of work.

@IndianTechGuide Doubling H-1B visas will definitely open more doors for skilled Indians but it also raises a big question Why doesnāt India create opportunities that make people want to stay?

@IndianTechGuide Increasing H-1B visas is a win for the U.S. economy. Skilled immigrants donāt take jobs they build companies, create innovation, and hire thousands more. Silicon Valley is powered by talent, not borders.

@IndianTechGuide If the U.S. actually wants to stay competitive, this is the bare minimum. The talent shortage isnāt a myth.

@IndianTechGuide Key Provisions of the HIRE Act Visa Expansion: Doubles the base H-1B cap to 130,000 to allow U.S. employers better access to global talent, reducing reliance on outsourcing and helping fill over 1 million unfilled STEM jobs annually. Domestic Investment: Allocates federal funds

@IndianTechGuide The proposal comes at a time when the U.S. faces ongoing shortages of highly skilled professionals in tech, research, engineering, and healthcare. Key highlights: ā¢Raises the core H-1B cap to 1,30,000. ā¢Seeks to modernize high-skilled immigration to match workforce needs.

@IndianTechGuide H-1B expansion from 65k to 130k helps Indian tech workers access US opportunities while benefiting companies that prefer foreign hires. American tech workers oppose it citing wage suppression. India loses talent permanently. Policy primarily serves corporate hiring flexibility

@IndianTechGuide If this actually goes through, itāll be one of the biggest wins for skilled talent in years. Companies keep talking about ātalent shortages,ā but the visa cap has stayed frozen in time. This bill could finally bring the policy closer to market needs.

@IndianTechGuide The bill also proposes removing the additional 20,000-visa āmasterās capā exemption, effectively making more visas available under the same expanded cap. Besides increasing visa numbers, the HIRE Act aims to boost funding for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)

@IndianTechGuide This bill will not pass because in order to pass this bill, they need 60 vote in the senate, and even if this bill get passed, there is no way trump is signing it because his sign is necessary in order to make a bill law

@IndianTechGuide LMAO. For what? There's no jobs for more hombre, the market is drying up faster than ever before. I think new H-1B's should be paused for atleast 2-3 years until the labor market adjusts itself, some of the scrap is cleaned out, locals find enough jobs. The idea should be to
