In a recent speech, Bill Gate criticised America’s immigration policy and offered a concrete example of how America’s lagging immigration policy has caused Microsoft to create jobs outside of the United States. According to the New York Times, Gates suggested that the U.S. should have exceptions for “smart people” in its immigration policy. These exceptions, Gates said, are available in Canada and that is why Microsoft has created many positions in our neighbor to the north.
America is in need of pragmatic, proactive immigration reform. Is Congress listening yet? Is Congress willing to act yet?
