Stephen Miller is an old associate of Trump

Donald Trump and Stephen Miller have been together for a long time. Miller has been associated with Trump as an aide for a long time. They also worked together during Trump’s first election campaign for the presidency. Miller was Trump’s senior advisor during his/her first term as President and has played an important role in many policy decisions. Especially on the issue of immigration, including Trump’s decision in 2018 to separate thousands of migrant families to stop immigrants.

Why Miller’s appointment a problem for Indian tech workers?

Actually, most of the Indians who go to work in America are associated with tech or IT field. H-1B visas are given to foreign workers for jobs in these sectors. H-1B visa is available to those people who do certain work. Indians do specialized jobs in tech and IT sectors, due to which they get this visa. However, only 65,000 H-1B visas are issued every year, due to which there is a lot of competition for this visa.

It is easier to obtain permanent residency through H-1B. At the same time, Stephen Miller is known as a person who has been against H-1B visa. According to Forbes report, the Trump administration has attempted to reduce the rights of foreign students and their work in America after graduation. According to the report, apart from curbing H-1B visas, new government officials have made policies to make studying in America less attractive.

When Stephen Miller becomes Deputy Chief for Policy, it is expected that he/she can tighten the H-1B visa rules. Its number can be reduced. A law can also be made to do this. The Trump government is coming up with a cruise-session bill, in which such rules will be made that if you have worked outside America for 10 years, then only you will be allowed to work in the country. Overall, it can be said that Stephen Miller will influence the immigration policies of the government.
