| Sen. Todd Young (R-Ind.), a member of the Senate's four-person AI
| working group and a longtime proponent of high-skilled immigrants,
| said Congress can do two things at once: crack down on illegal
| immigration while also clearing new pathways for foreign STEM
| professionals.
|
| Young waved off questions about the powerful anti-immigrant current
| in his party, instead noting that Musk himself is an immigrant.
|
| "America has benefited from Elon Musk and his amazing contributions
| to our economy," Young told POLITICO. "He's the object lesson on how
| high-skilled immigration can benefit our country, if done right."
|
| Rep. Bill Foster (D-Ill.), a longtime proponent of increases to
| high-skilled immigration, said he's been "waiting for the stars to
| align" -- and that Silicon Valley's rising influence on the GOP may
| be what's needed to break the logjam and defeat the restrictionists.
