While not exclusive to Republicans, he's not wrong many are an5hat many more sheath racism and xenophobia under anti H1B sentiments.
This used to be an ultra-left tactic of trade unions and closed shops.
- Zigurd 2y agoH1-B visa terms, in the letter of the law and regulation, are protective of US citizen jobs and wages. In practice H1-B is used to depress wages and exploit H1-B workers. Framing this as a racism issue, especially by Elon, is a cynical ploy to set the people damaged by the way H1-B is used in practice against each other.
