President Donald Trump promoted pro-H-1B immigrant articles on his TruthSocial account, despite widespread alarm from pro-American voters that he would be needed in 2026.
Trump's was popular The article has been published in many media, said He says H-1B white-collar immigration is good for American investors, businesses, and big government.
Last weekend, President-elect Trump expressed support for expanding immigrant worker visas. He told the New York Post: That's why we have them. ”

Hard-working, entrepreneurial immigrants and good old Yankee ingenuity are clearly one of the greatest comparative advantages the United States has over nearly every country in the world, especially communist China.
I can't think of a better way to make America great again.

But Trump voters support him. american — and not just America — is great again.
His support for expanded white-collar H-1B immigration has many concerned that American graduates will be pushed out of jobs, careers, innovation and management of the nation's technology companies. for example, water soft babylonA Twitter account run by an American manager at a well-known Silicon Valley company wrote on January 8th:
A guy who was recently promoted to Vice President was someone everyone I knew considered mediocre. But he was Indian and his boss was also Indian. [Indian] The mafia worked in his favor. In all the years I worked for this company, I remember only one American being promoted to Vice President under an Indian boss. The only time I see Americans promoted is when they work for one of the few American bosses. That's how they take over the company.
Another national problem is that H-1B immigrants are hurting innovation because they are unable to act as calm, candid, and productive professionals in the American style. They are reluctant because their ability to earn green card deferred bonuses depends on the support of their Indian bosses and colleagues. A docile green card workforce is stifling American innovation and contributing to the failure of many products from Theranos, Twitter, and other companies.
India's growing role in the US technology sector is also ensuring that former H-1B employees are elevated by corporate boards to CEO positions and lead US investment and hiring. return to one's home country Rather than entering the United States.
For example, Microsoft's Indian-born CEO is Satya Nadella. He is a former H-1B employee and current Hopes for the Prime Minister of India “Train.”10 million Indians will acquire AI skillsover the next five years US experts also fired.
In January, Indian-born Google CEO Sundar Pichai, a former H-1B immigrant, promised more investment in India. “He pushed us to continue to make in India and design in India. We are now proud to make Pixel smartphones in India,” Pichai said. He was reported to have told Indian media. indian era.
The Indian government is also pressuring US CEOs to support the H-1B program in exchange for allowing entry into the Indian consumer market.
Many Indians proudly brag about the H-1B takeover of American companies.
Also, far more immigrant Indian and Chinese graduates are already taking advantage of the H-1B program to bring US technology jobs back to their home countries, ensuring mass layoffs of US graduates. .
A recent surge in polls shows Americans expect President Trump to establish pro-American immigration policies, with many Republicans favoring legal immigration and white-collar H-1B immigration. It shows that they want to reduce immigration. for example, YouGov poll for January 8th It was found that 27% of Americans want the H-1B program to be reduced or eliminated, while only 17% want it increased. Forty percent of Republicans want to reduce or eliminate the program, while just 12% want to expand it.
The poll also found that 24% of Democrats and 24% of people with incomes of $100,000 or more want to expand the program.
If these pro-American, pro-Trump voters don't turn out to vote in 2026 and 2028, Democrats will be in control of President Trump's second term and post-retirement plans.
of Pro-immigration articles The book promoted by President Trump was written by Stephen Moore, a longtime advocate of expanding H-1B visas. in 2019 articlesMoore writes:
The H1B process is cumbersome and expensive for employers, so if they weren't in desperate need of these talented recruits, they wouldn't spend money on the program. Over the past decade or so, the processing time and costs for admitting H1B immigrants have nearly doubled. This will deplete the economy and reduce America's competitiveness.
“We have to increase that number dramatically.” [tech worker] Visa,” Moore said. larry kudrow radio show In December, in a debate with Breitbart News editor Alex Marlowe.
Mr. Moore's new article was widely published, despite its extensive content. numerous Misleading statement.
The H-1B program is not called the “H1B” program. Many H-1B immigrants earn less than Americans and are legally defined as: low or medium skillAnd many people apply for green cards by exaggerating their professional success. Additionally, U.S. companies do not have to first find qualified U.S. nationals, visa workers are often used in place of U.S. nationals, and the resident population is at least 500,000.
Republican politicians are increasingly recognizing the harm caused by the H-1B program. “See how eligible Americans are being denied many of these things. [technology] Because companies can hire cheap labor from overseas,” said Sen. Eric Schmidt (R-Missouri). said “Fox News Sunday.”
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said on January 7th He said he would replace outgoing Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) “not just for illegal immigration… but to make sure these visa programs are not used to undermine American workers.” He said he would appoint a person.
Even Elon Musk and many Democrats agree that the H-1B program needs reform. “What I'm saying is that for America to continue to win, it's essential that we attract the top 0.1% of our engineering talent through legal immigration,” Musk tweeted.
In 2020, President Trump's lawmakers proposed a number of centrist reforms that were blocked by President Joe Biden's lawmakers. For example, President Trump's reforms required new H-1Bs to be given to companies that offer the highest salaries. This plan would have stopped businesses importing low-skilled Indians for career-starting jobs and helped the next generation of Americans get a good start in high-tech careers.
Trump's likely voters are also turning against him, threatening his chances of winning the 2026 midterm elections. But the pushback also gives President Trump more excuses to resist investor demands.

Stephen Moore is unlikely to be a Trump ally. For example, he is a strong supporter of corporate transitions; long-time opponent of tariffs. “I'm a free trader” he said In an interview in December 2025.
Mr Moore said: steve casea long-time investor and advocate for more White-collar H-1B immigrants. in 2023 ArticlesMr. Case even supported a plan to advertise jobs to laid-off H-1B immigrants, but not to the vast numbers of American graduates forced out of the tech industry. This plan was canceled after intervention by pro-American groups. filed an anti-discrimination lawsuit.
Mr. Case is also an investor in start-up companies, and the H-1B program provides a large supply of foreign workers for the government to work long hours and low wages in pursuit of green cards and citizenship. There is. Government subsidies have two-sided benefits for investors in startups. Because it also means they no longer have to offer equity in startups and hire young Americans.
For example, Doug Burgum, who was nominated by President Trump to be Secretary of the Interior, was instrumental in taking over the Interior Department. great plains software With funding from friends and family in North Dakota. Overall, North Dakotans Large opening in 1997 On Wall Street. Since then, the company has been taken over by Microsoft and staffed by H-1B, leaving no opportunity for young Dakotans. Mr. Burgum moved to Microsoft, but Nadella, a former H-1B official, succeeded him in 2007..
Moore also mentioned the “bipartisan American Immigration Council.” The group is run by immigration lawyer And he strongly opposes President Trump's efforts to reduce the flow of illegal immigration.
Moore also touted a 2024 report from the Congressional Budget Office that claims immigration will help reduce the “nearly $1 trillion budget deficit over the period 2024-2034.” But the report also acknowledged that while immigrants contribute to government expansion, they also reduce Americans' wage and wealth-generating productivity.
