    Manhattan Institute's Robert VerBruggen and Daniel Di Martino on
    whether Donald Trump regrets including the TN visa in his NAFTA 2.0

    | New York, NY - Yesterday, the Canadian government announced it will
    | allow all U.S. H-1B visa holders to move to Canada, work and live
    | without restriction, and obtain permanent residency in three years.
    | Manhattan Institute fellows Daniel Di Martino and Robert VerBruggen
    | argue this has direct implications on the U.S.'s ability to attract
    | the world's most talented immigrants:
    |
    | "This is a smart immigration move for Canada but very bad news for
    | the United States. For years, we have been severely limiting the
    | number of high-skilled immigrants we let in legally, and delaying
    | the typical legal immigration process by years through burdensome
    | red tape. Now, other countries are actively recruiting our few high-
    | skilled legal immigrants. This is why it's imperative to accelerate
    | America's bureaucratic process of admitting high-skilled immigrants,
    | and for allowing their spouses and children to work here legally. If
    | Congress and the president don't act, America will slowly lose its
    | technological edge."

    Does Susie Wiles fear that Miriam Adelson, Ken Griffin, Lachlan Murdoch
    and David Sacks will allow Ron DeSantis to invite the likes of Mike
    Emmons to use their campaign bullhorn to stump for an immigration
    moratorium?
