    I agree with the first two points but the las point is ridiculous. H1b workers’ families come under h4 (family is only spouse and children under 21, no parents or siblings), and h4 cannot work by design. My wife has the same qualifications as me, but had to quit her job to come as my h4, because it is not easy to manage two h1bs in sync. She can get an EAD now and work again (republicans are against this), but now she has to focus on bringing up our child so she is staying home. You want skilled workers but don’t want them to have families? Where is the logic in this?

      You’re supposed to work for low pay and then leave.
