    Katrina Manson on whether Donald Trump regrets dispatching Jared and
    Ivanka Kushner to Silicon Valley to sue for peace with the likes of
    Mark Zuckerberg: <URL:https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-11-21/2022-tech-layoffs-leave-h-1b-visa-holders-in-limbo>
    | Aditya Tawde, an engineer from India who works at LinkedIn, calls
    | immigration support from US companies the "bare minimum." He was
    | laid off by TripAdvisor early in the pandemic. After taking two days
    | to process his layoff, he interviewed with 25 different employers
    | and found a job with just two weeks left on his visa. "It's natural
    | to feel sad and angry," he says.
    |
    | A USCIS spokesperson says the agency is exploring policy options to
    | address challenges faced by immigrant communities and is committed
    | to increasing access to immigration benefits.

    Will John Katko and Kevin McCarthy defund Alejandro Mayorkas and Ur
    M Jaddou from granting amnesty to the Cheap Labor Lobby's scab
    workers?
