Trump has consistently been opposed to ILLEGAL ALIENS!! Not legally processed H-1 b visa recipients!! Move on.
Another Anti-Trump Hit piece. Is he saying no wall? Nope. Is he saying do not enforce the immigration laws? Nope. Is he pro amnesty? Nope.
Hes simply using common sense, they use our education system and get the brain power and we can use that resource. Fact is our lower level education system (Common core, etc) is broken and we do not have enough educated people to compete in the global market place - yet.
Trump clarified his stand shortly after the last debate w/regard to H1B visas. His position was that he does not favor the use of H1B visas in order to replace available, qualified U.S. workers w/foreign workers solely for the purpose of cutting costs.
Such actions are prohibited under the current H1B visa legislation and were never the INTENT of the H1B Visa program. Unfortunately, many unscrupulous employers, such as Disney, have done just that and have even required the U.S. workers to train foreigners hired to replace them.
The only area where Trump believes H1B visas would be warranted is where qualified, highly skilled U.S. workers are not available and where the hiring company could prove this is the situation prior to the issuance of the visa. (He mentioned Silicon Valley specifically during the interview.)
