Immigration is central to America's story, and it's central to my own family's story. My family escaped danger and found a new home in America. @sundarpichai is right - at @YouTube, we join Google in standing with immigrants and working to expand opportunity for all. https://t.co/ExJ5KT84ix

Turning away skilled, driven, creative folks offering to work extra hard for their shot at the American dream is going to send them off to other economies, similarly in need of such talents for their own post-COVID recovery efforts. H-1B holders result in net job creation.

Immigration has contributed immensely to America’s economic success, making it a global leader in tech, and also Google the company it is today. Disappointed by today’s proclamation - we’ll continue to stand with immigrants and work to expand opportunity for all.

Once companies realize they don’t need employees to be based in the US, setting up offices and hiring people *OUTSIDE THE US* will become the norm. Like what happened with WFH since March.

I came into the U.S. more than a decade ago on a J visa, then scrambled for years on H-1B work visas.
— Tim Mak (@timkmak) June 22, 2020
I sought and received a green card.
Then I earned citizenship by joining the military and swore in on the graduation field at Ft. Jackson.
That's a pathway now closed. https://t.co/B1s2gVFOd3
Trump expected to suspend H-1B visas until end of year to prevent international students/postdocs from coming to the US.

Totally agree. One of the biggest advantages the US has--for now--is that the world's smartest, most talented people want to live and work here. We should welcome them (after appropriate vetting) with open arms. https://t.co/jkKpBfcY3G

This is what I was saying earlier about the H-1B program. Yes it is super flawed, but often it is the only viable pathway to citizenship for a international college students, exchange student/visitors etc to immigrate if they do not have immediate US citizen family. https://t.co/UipQxWhcbQ

The suspension of the H1B visa program is bad for the US, bad for innovation, and will shatter dreams and disrupt lives. As a former H1B visa holder, my heart goes out to all the families affected.

In the digital economy, you hire where the talent is. When you restrict immigration, the jobs still get created, just somewhere else. And later down the road, when those individuals create the next Google, it won’t be here.

Apart from the evil, this is a knife in the heart of the economy. If Americans could fill these jobs, we'd be filling them - a country that elects Donald Trump doesn't HAVE a smart enough population to afford cutting off global tech/science workers who want to come here. https://t.co/YoXcdkY6Cl
