Restricting H-1Bs for high-skilled immigration to the US will shrink access to the global talent pool that has contributed substantially to US innovation, productivity, jobs, & earning opportunities for all Americans, just as China is opening its doors to these workers. @m_clem:
NEW: If successful, the H-1B change would severely damage the most important channel for US entry by workers with advanced degrees & specialized knowledge, causing profound & widespread harm to Americans’ incomes & job opportunities. piie.com/blogs/realtime…
$100,000 U.S. visa fee vs. China’s one big beautiful K visa.
On the @HayekProgram podcast, I spoke with @MasonEconomics prof & @PIIE senior fellow @m_clem. Learn how current immigration policies leave "trillion-dollar bills on the sidewalk," mass deportation means less jobs for Americans, and much more!
Watch a wonderful interview of @m_clem with Anjali Bhatt. Everything you need to know about immigration today in one handy interview. See next post.
In April, @m_clem warned eliminating Optional Practical Training would cause permanent losses to US innovation, productivity, economic growth, & job opportunities for both less-educated native workers & more educated native workers. Now it might happen. piie.com/blogs/realtime…

A new book by @PeterBoettke and Candela is something to celebrate. This one brings together some of their crucial insights—which have inspired me—on the symbiosis between institutionalized liberty and productive specialization. Taproot of wealth. amazon.com/HISTORICAL-PAT…
