Presidential Candidates Support Increasing H1B Visas
By HSB
U.S. Presidential Elections is nearing and I have been following up with presidential elections since Primaries started in Jan 2008. Arizona Republican John McCain and Illinois Democrat Barack Obama have complete different personality and differ in views on energy, taxes, health care,. . But the presidential candidates agree when it comes to allowing skilled foreign workers into the U.S. under H1B visas.
H1B Visa Lottery was conducted earlier this year in April and still many H1B Visa applicants haven’t heard about their application status. Some of them received RFE on H1B.
Senator McCain View on H1B Visa
Sen. McCain continues to be a strong supporter of H1-B expansion, but mere expansion is not enough. Reforms should eliminate the artificial limits and allow a level of visas appropriate for market conditions,” said McCain campaign spokeswoman Ivette Barajas.
Senator Obama’s View on H1B Visa
Obama supports a temporary increase in H-1Bs. He also favors allowing more legal immigration into the U.S. and making it easier for foreign students who attend college in the U.S. to stay and work after they graduate. (Greencard) For more information read here..
Well, now you know where the Presidential Candidates stand and I will let you decide between “No H1B Visa Cap” or “Green Card in Less Time”. Last night according to CNN National poll of polls showed Barack Obama is leading by 2 points.
