H-1B visas are replacing American STEM workers warns Mark Krikorian

America’s immigration policies are failing our workers, students, and future. Programs like H-1B and OPT are not about finding the best talent—they’re about replacing American jobs, suppressing wages, and sidelining our own STEM graduates. This isn’t just an economic issue; it’s a cultural and national security threat. Mark Krikorian, Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies, warns that we must prioritize American talent by investing in education, reforming immigration programs, and demanding policies that put our citizens first. This is a fight for our country’s future—if we don’t act now, we risk losing the innovation, opportunity, and strength that define America. Let’s demand an America First immigration policy before it’s too late.
