How many of those immigrants were sponsored by a corporation or investor and restricted in how and where they could work by the terms of their employment?
How many came here as free and full members of the workforce, allowed to pursue their own career paths as they saw fit?
There's a huge difference between supporting immigration and employer controlled visa programs.
- bduerst 9y agoThe newest fortune 500 companies (founded last 25 years) are more likely to have an immigrant founder. Corporate sponsorship (H1B, etc.) was part of the Immigration Act of 1965, meaning that even in lieu of more restrictive immigration, immigrants are still heavy hitters for generating jobs and revenue.
