Immigration attorney here. I agree with H visas and J visas but disagree with L visas. L visas are usually for investors and they generally create at least a handful of employment and are forced to renew the visa after 1 year, meaning they are a net positive. Some L visas are abused by large corporations and I would be ok with pausing those but L1 for investors should continue. Overall good measure though. H visas are massively abused
Depends. Blanket Ls for big companies should have greater oversight. Regular L visas are mostly good in my experience. I don’t deal
With Chinese or the west market. Here in the south east we mostly get wealthy Hispanic families who come to keep their money safe by opening up American branches and funneling money from their country into America. Overall
That’s a very good thing for us because we literally symphonic the wealth from the outside. What you are describing to me sounds more like EB5 visas which are mostly a scam and I agree with you there
Most L visas are the people we do want here though. Same with E2 visas. These are mostly the best and brightest from their Country and are escaping the shitty socialist conditions in their countries.
We're already taken in 79 million legal immigrants, 90% of whom vote left for life and have irrevocably fucked this country up. We don't need any more, of any type, even if they come to buy shit up.
"We" don't want or need them at all.
This country wasn't created to be the dumping ground of the world, nor to be the fucking golden ticket for people incapable of building anything like it themselves.
People who come here to buy up properties and run up the cost of living and house prices are no better than the ones that come here and get on welfare.
If they're so fuckin wonderful they can improve their own shithole countries instead of coming here to make this place just like them.
Furthermore, allowing foreigners to buy up OUR land and property is both a major national security risk as well as something that fucks over Americans.
I agree. We should target changes to improve detention of fake marriages, fake asylums, stop unvetted chain migration, anchor baby laws that encourage as many children as possible, visa lottery, the H1B abuse by India, and a lot of other things. Investor visas are not the problem and if we only gave out investor visas the country wouldn’t turn any more blue. I’m
Just letting you know what I see from
My personal experience. Investors tend to be very conservative
My typical L1 or E2 client (majority of foreign investors) are medium sized business owners in their countries. Anything from the small business owner with 20 employees in Argentina to Brazilians with a 500 man factory in Brazil. In my experience these are the best and brightest in their country and are usually coming here because they are tired of being vilified by socialists in their country for being rich. They tend to lean very conservative (at least my Latin American clients)
EB5, L1, and E1/E2 are the main investor visas. I believe the L1 is added in because while it’s mainly for investors in my experience, there is something called a “blanket” L1 which you can get if you have a company over 5000 employees. This allows you to skip the entire L process and bring in foreign workers without a lot of vetting. If this EO only affects blanket L visas (which are always done by in-house counsel) then I’m ok with this.
Hey man, I love my legal immigrants that are here to MAGA. Immigration is a tool that can be used to help the nation as well. We just need to make sure the rules are set up to bring in quality immigrants exclusively. I’m working toward that goal

No thanks, we don't need more foreign invaders who are incapable of even creating a similar country much less maintaining this one.

NO, FUCKOFF, THE L VISA IS AN EVEN BIGGER SCAM THAN THE H1B. SEND THEM AWAY.
How so?
Foreign investors?
Thats EB5 visa.

Not true. EB-5 is for foreign investors, which does not seem in-scope in this EO
EB5, L1, and E1/E2 are the main investor visas. I believe the L1 is added in because while it’s mainly for investors in my experience, there is something called a “blanket” L1 which you can get if you have a company over 5000 employees.

Yeah, fuck the nation as long as you profit. I smell a rat.
