Ah, sorry for misreading you.
While I think these changes are great, they'd actually be a kind of anti-founder's visa. Entrepreneurial foreign students would be encouraged to take normal jobs to get the green card, rather than start startups. (In general you can't have a significant equity stake in a company that's sponsoring you for work, as it's considered a kind of "self-sponsorship".)
- anigbrowl 16y agoHmm, that's a good point about the equity test; although a green card rather than a visa tied to a single sponsor is a much more flexible residency document. I'm going to be asking my representatives to support this (reform in general) so I'll throw in a link to pg's essay to emphasize that possibility.
