Immigration Reform: Assuming the US <\/strong>does not take steps to counter the shortage of high-skilled workers<\/strong> in the country, it could result in more than 9 million<\/strong> job opportunities and $1.2 trillion<\/strong> in lost production throughout the following decade, as indicated by a report published by a network of technology <\/strong>CEOs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the US not producing enough skilled degree holders<\/strong> to fill demand, extending high-skilled immigration<\/strong> is the best solution for contracting the current skills gap and contributing to new business improvement and economic growth, said the report, issued by TechNet.<\/strong> Despite the positive effects of immigration and the growth of the US economy, the current H-1B visa guidelines<\/strong> have remained unchanged over the past 14 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are in a global race for talent. The United States<\/strong> should welcome the world’s best and the brightest, and their families, so they can give their talents to work for the American economy<\/strong>,” said Linda Moore, president, and CEO, TechNet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immigration reform to prevent 9 million job vacancies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While education reform is critical to narrow the skills gap<\/strong> in the future. This is a two-decade<\/strong> investment and will not solve the current shortage of skilled worker<\/strong>s in the US. As indicated by the report, ‘Closing the Skills Gap: The Data Behind Talent Shortages, High-Skilled Immigration <\/strong>and Economic Impact’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The United States used to be the top destination for the world’s best<\/strong> and brightest innovators looking for a home for their organizations. Unfortunately, that has changed. Because of our outdated immigration system<\/strong>, the technology sector is presently going to different nations. Such as Canada, which welcomes highly skilled immigrants <\/strong>and provide organizations with the flexibility they need to grow and thrive. Congress can change that,” said Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren<\/strong>, chair of the House Immigration and Citizenship Subcommittee. “By modernizing our immigration laws <\/strong>and creating a committed visa for founders of new companies. We can accelerate economic growth<\/strong>, create jobs for American workers. Also, guarantee our nation is the top choice for the next generation of entrepreneurs worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest information shows that there are more than 10 million<\/strong> job opportunities. Across the US with more than 7 million <\/strong>individuals unemployed. The ability to find workers is harming business bottom lines. TechNet’s report showed 64% <\/strong>of employers report a skills gap at their organization and that failing to lessen the current skills gap. It could bring down productivity by 51%<\/strong>, depress economic growth by 42%<\/strong>, and decrease innovation by 43%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, it adds that this does not occur at the cost of American workers<\/strong>. Information from the report showed immigration<\/strong> helps employment and earnings potential for American employees<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
