How High-Tech Workers Fit Into Immigration Reform (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

Interview:
http://onpoint.wbur.org/2013/05/07/high-tech-foreign-workers

The iconic figure in the immigration debate in Washington right now is the sun-baked pilgrim from Mexico, ready for rough work in the United States.

But there is another figure. Another end of the debate. Over the high-tech engineer, highly-educated, out of India or China maybe, ready to jump right into Silicon Valley.

American high-tech titans like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg are pushing hard right now for immigration reform to bring in many more high-tech workers. Some Americans in the field are saying “hold on.”

Up next On Point: the high-tech end of the immigration debate.
–Tom Ashbrook
