MAGA civil war? Indians in focus as Republicans spar over immigration, H-1B visas ahead of Trump presidency

Live Mint  

The US Republican party appears to be heading for a ‘civil war’ as President-elect Donald Trump prepares for his term in office. The tech industry has long called for more H-1B visas to attract highly skilled workers to the US. Krishnan has been a vocal advocate for immigration laws based on merit — favouring changes that will prioritise highly skilled workers and expedite the green card application process. The situation has continued to escalate with several key members of the incoming Trump administration reiterating the need to revamp and ‘improve’ the H-1B visa system. Elon Musk and Indian-American tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy — who will jointly run the Department of Government Efficiency — have both advocated visas for 'skilled' workers in recent days.
