With the deceptively named Millionaire's Tax and the proposal to do away with the Qualified Small Business Stock exemption, it seems that Olympia is dead set on killing entrepreneurship in Washington State. Unfortunately, it also seems like either nobody has noticed or that nobody cares. Episode 4 of Foundations Almost Live! is our attempt at getting you up to speed in a way that's not boring (if not equally insane to the proposals themselves). seattlefoundations.org/almos…

What's interesting about the MAGA movement is the ambiguity around the time horizon. Making America Better in 2025 (e.g. tariffs) is different than Making America Great in 2035 (e.g. immigration policy to attract the world's best students). I doubt populism can embrace both.

The H-1B debate is hard since everyone has anecdotes. Some only know top performers. Others work with IT consulting shops. Some saw top grads from MIT lose the lottery and leave. Others have seen abusive employers take advantage. The program is critical, as is need for reform.

They're opening the border! <- these spouses have lived in the U.S. for at least 10 years, and average 23 YEARS without legal ability to work They're increasing crime! <- these spouses have to go through a rigorous application and generally need a clean record (2/4)

They're rigging the election! <- these spouses will need to wait at least 2, sometimes 5 years before being able to apply for citizenship and vote. They're increasing labor! <- that's right! America has a massive labor shortage and inflation; this is helping with both (3/4)

Ignoring commentary that says the U.S. citizen should get a divorce because they married a criminal. Will finish with, can you imagine living in the U.S. for 10 years with the love of your life, and never be able to visit your family at home or pursue your career? (4/4)

For the first time, spouses of U.S. citizens who entered the country without documentation can apply for work permits and obtain legal status. THIS IS GREAT FOR AMERICA OVERALL. boundless.com/blog/biden-par… Rebuttals to arguments in thread (1/4)

Pizza chains should donate $1 for every Hawaiian pizza sold to Maui relief. Plus millions of people will start appreciating pineapple on pizza. @pizzahut @dominos @PapaJohns @papamurphys who's with me?

Thank you @jacobgoldstein for allowing me to tell the story of @chooseboundless and all of the great things we've yet to be able to accomplish to help immigrants thrive in their lives!
Xiao Wang moved to the U.S. from China when he was three. He used to take for granted that immigration is slow, difficult, and $$$. But now? He's building a platform to help people figure out that same system. More on @jacobgoldstein's #WhatsYourProblem: bit.ly/3NLmkMW

Instead of hiring/training new employees to manage asylum cases, USCIS is drafting from the existing understaffed pool. Will be interesting to see which immigration categories slow down in a few months.
NEW — The U.S. government is reassigning nearly 500 @USCIS employees to help interview migrants who ask for asylum along the southern border as it prepares for a spike in migration once Title 42 expires in May, according to an internal notice obtained by CBS News.

Thanks @amyfeldman for sharing the immigrant angle of the SVB collapse story. Really hoping more banks step up to offer products adapting to immigrant founders, especially those waiting for a SSN, credit history, etc.

HUGE NEWS for US immigration today! Extending H-1B visa grace period from 60 to 180 days was approved at the @WHIAANHPI meeting today and will be announced by USCIS in ~3mos!! For the 100k workers affected by layoffs, this is a huge sigh of relief. Thanks @ajainb! 🧵 1/3

For those laid off while on H-1B or other work visas, the Director of @USCIS explicitly alluded that those affected can change their status to a B1/B2 tourist visa and continue their employment search while in the U.S. This was an area that was unclear previously.
