There are many articles about this but this one actually links to the bill. Some of the bill is about tech transfer but most of it appears oriented towards visas and bringing in labor.

Based on anecdotal evidence from friends and comments on developer forums, many software developers in various midwest states are experiencing a surge in wages. Much of this comes from businesses in 'tech hotbeds' either opening offices in midwestern or high plains states or allowing remote work from the midwest.

Who are these Senators (KS, MO, MN) trying to help with this bill?

I smelly stale microwaved curry.

This should probably be called the “More Indians” act. Hope you like training your cheap labor replacement to get your severance.

Republicans really need to stop supporting this garbage. There are plenty of perfectly capable Americans to fill the needed roles. We don’t need to import slaves from s***holes.

I fail to see how pumping more money into universities would play any role in what the bill claims to be creation of jobs. We need to stop this maddening mass of taxpayer money pouring into universities for research.

Very curious. Moran represents Kansas in the senate. I have heard his name exactly never. He has not one accomplishment. Keeps his head down.

I would suspect, but have no evidence of, this bill resulting in the strengthening of the axis of university/foreign student (tuition)/globalist/Koch brother cheap labor amalgamation.

“bipartisan, cutting-edge legislation to encourage job creation, grow entrepreneurial activity, increase innovation and advance economic development.”

Sorry. Pres. Trump beat you to it.
