Episode Synopsis

Every year, hundreds of thousands of employment-based immigrant visas are provided to workers under U.S. immigration law. But what does this mean for the average person working and living in the U.S.? And how do highly-skilled immigrants impact the U.S. economy? In this episode of Catalyst, Kevin Fandl, associate professor of legal studies and strategic global management, details the history of high-skilled worker visas in America. He outlines how highly skilled immigrants have always been part of the lifeblood of the American economy, helping to create centers of innovation like Silicon Valley. Kevin also forecasts the future of high-skilled worker visas, detailing what we might expect for the program under the Biden administration.   Find out more details at www.fox.temple.edu/catalyst.    Key Links Kevin Fandl, PhD   ----- Follow us on Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Instagram ----- Subscribe to our newsletter.
