    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Neil Munro
    on whether Donald Trump regrets taking Jared Kushner's advice to
    downplay the National Question on the campaign stump against Joe Biden
    and Kamala Harris in 2020: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2022/05/10/business-tells-congress-use-china-bill-import-more-foreign-graduates/>
    | Many journalists accept the business claim that there is a "labor
    | shortage." Few recognize the existing population of underpaid,
    | underused, or sidelined Americans, or even many employers'
    | reluctance to invest in automation. For example, Alison Snyder, the
    | managing editor at Axios where the letter was first posted, wrote on
    | May 9:
    |
    || Between the lines: "People are recognizing very critical
    || national security goals can't be achieved unless international STEM
    || talent has a way to come and stay in the U.S.," says Remco
    || Zwetsloot, who researches STEM immigration and U.S.-China
    || technological competitiveness at CSIS.
    |
    | Several of the letter's signers declined to answer questions about
    | their push. They included Michael Chertoff at the Chertoff Group,
    | Randy Beardsworth at Catalyst Partners, Paul Rosenzweig at Red
    | Branch Consulting, Joseph Votel at Business Executives for National
    | Security, and Julie Myers Wood at Guidepost Solutions, and Stewart
    | Verdery at Monument Advocacy.
    |
    | Other signers include David Deptula, Elaine Dezenski, Richard
    | Fontaine, Steve Chu, and Ken Gabriel.

    Does Bill Stepien have any polling data on whether legacy American
    moms and dads prefer their sons and daughters grow up to be STEM
    professionals?

    "Say what you want about President Trump, but he gets it better than
    the rest of GOP Leadership. The NeoCons boasted for weeks that
    Russia is just "a gas station" with "a smaller economy than Italy,"
    but Putin still outplayed them. Maybe a little humility is in order,
    war hawks." - Columbia Bugle <URL:https://twitter.com/ColumbiaBugle/status/1496229969617428485>
