This is the nature of politics, not only in this country but around the world. Political parties pursue differing agendas, and at times, those agendas may not align with the interests of immigrants. That reality, however, does not justify placing blame on American Nepalese, who are part of the broader fabric of this nation. I’ve read the bill, and I see no cause for concern. It’s a long-overdue step toward fixing a broken system.

First and foremost, anything that requires 60 votes in the senate will never pass in this polarized political environment. Secondly, it might not even clear the house as there might be huge drop in international students (brings about 45B annually) and will definitely be opposed by the universities. I think we need to stop blaming Nepalese who supported MAGA movements. People will always look after their interests. Trump presented himself as a successful businessman who will improve the economy overnight. People who can vote are very much interested in the economy rather than the party's support for immigration. Had Biden not bring in the unlimited number of people, some of them might be Chinese spies, we would not really be in this mess. Handful of Nepali origin people supporting MAGA movement is not the cause for negative sentiments towards immigration.

माछा मारेको आरोपमा PhD बिद्यार्थीको भीसा रद्द https://kslnewsradio.com/shows... BYU student Suguru Onda is a year away from finishing his doctorate. He’s married and has five kids who all live here in Utah.  When he received word that his visa was revoked, the notice read “Individual identified in criminal records check and/or has had their VISA revoked.”  Onda said he has no criminal history, just a few speeding tickets and a citation for a catch and release violation on a fishing trip with family six years ago.

Sexy In Sari, I went through entire OPT process. Tell me what's broken about this system?

sajhamitra · Apr 23, 2025 1:42 AM

@sajhamitra: I don't see the need for a long debate. The bill clearly lays out the problems we've been facing. I don’t need to repeat them. You may support the current OPT process because it benefits you personally, not because it fulfills the goals the U.S. government set out to achieve. The new bill seeks to correct that imbalance. No need to say more.

International students from nooks and crannies of the world uniquely enrich the academic experience in US universities as they bring fresh and overlooked global issues and perspectives into the learning environment. These younger minds are socially more dynamic and become accultured to the American fabric, ways, and mores by the time they earn their academic degrees. International students contribute significantly to the US GDP in the form of expensive tuitions, housing, health-care, and economic activities while fostering economic dynamism when they pick up part-time jobs with extreme agility and flexibility after securing EAD from USCIS. These new graduates should continue to be extended multi-year OPT upon graduation instead of importing H1b visa-holders via profit-offshoring tech-staffing companies who come from just one country that is notoriously afflicting the corporate world and American society with nepotism, tribalism, and casteist practices.

Well said Animo. My opinion on this matter is that H1B visa should be filled with US graduates first before allocating visas for foregin student. That might increase the demand of US student visa and help the US economy. Student visa should be the primary getway for Green Card too. That way there will be plenty of vetting before the person can become permanent resident.

How many of you here think that getting a degree, going back to your country, using your education, and living happily with your family is the wrong path, while the path to a green card is the better one?If Nepal has no future, how did your parents have a child like you in a country with no future and still manage to send you here? Sawal ka jawab do, beta!!!

Quality of Life Give some information about your family background—specifically the history of your grandfather and grandmother, their children, where they lived in their earlier life, and what they did for a living. Also, mention what your immediate family members are doing now. You will find there your sawal ko jawab beta! If not, they will point it out to you after you provide your background.

Sexy In Sari, You mentioned "broken process". How do you defend that argument. You are avoiding your false argument.

Why there is so much Hate within MAGA voters? Are they trying to show their imperfect and sad life by showing hate toward left? I am curious.

sajhamitra · Apr 26, 2025 11:29 AM

This is what maga voted for, and I am happy for them Trump is giving $300 billion to Iran. This could pay for: — Student debt elimination for 7.6M Americans — An end to homelessness in America — Healthcare subsidies for 22M Americans for nearly a decade — Medicaid coverage for 3.2M Americans for a decade — Food assistance for 41M Federal cancer research for 40+ years — Free school lunch for every kid in America for over 4 years — Replacing every lead pipe in America — Free pre-K for every child in America for over 7 years
