Ask HN: Do you think MS from US univ will be made compulsory to get work permit?
Hello everyone,
2017 was full of news with Trump trying to curb immigration. Things escalated when he showed signs that he won't spare legal immigration as well. This was clear when he announced his intentions to curb legal immigration by 50%. More so when he targeted DREAMERs. Whether his bills pass through Congress or not, is next thing to consider. When Trump was campaigning, I took his promises with pinch of salt. Now, it looks like he's pretty serious about keeping his promises.
However, with his strict policies, I've a sinking filling that he might make a MS from US university a compulsory criteria for engineers to take up employment in US.
How many of HN readers think this is plausible & may happen? What are the chances that Congress may enact this proposal? Please back your educated guess with your thoughts & opinions.
Much grateful,
Concerned Engineer from India.
