As a naturalized American from Venezuela who originally came here on a student visa to attend @Harvard, I agree 💯. There are infinitely better ways to tackle immigration and fix the problems in elite universities than preventing the best and brightest whose values are aligned with America’s from coming here
America wins by recruiting builders and innovators: Einstein, Jensen, Grove, Brin, Huang. Immigrants start companies, create millions of jobs, and strengthen our global leadership—benefiting generations of native-born Americans. Immigration done right is America First. 🇺🇸

Great way to start Day 2 of @eMergeAmericas, celebrating 10 years! As @marianaatencio said- this is a #family hosted by my friend and leader @melmedina305 #miamitech
