Trump Softens Stand on High-Skilled Immigrants

Days after the Trump-led administration approved harsher vetting process for work visas to United States, the tech advisory council of the nation sat up with him to discuss on various agendas including work visas, climate change and immigration.

Led by Jared Kushner, Trump’s senior advisor and son-in-law, the meeting was attended by 18 chief executives at White House. While discussing on how to ensure that work visas are approved to highly skilled and highest-paid workers, as decided earlier, President Donald Trump responded very positively saying and agreed to fact that immigration issues are adversely affecting the staffing in tech companies.

Among the 18 CEOs who were present at the meeting -Satya Nadella of Microsoft, Ajay Banga of MasterCard and Shantanu Narayen of Adobe Systems were Indians. Others include- Jeff Bezos (Amazon), Tim Cook (Apple), Ginni Rometty(IBM) and Brian Krzanich (Intel).

On other hand, Trump cracked a funny joke at tech bosses’ saying – ‘we have USD3.5 million market value in this room, and since my election, wealth created though stock market boom is almost same. And I think we have beaten you by a little bit.’
