With the deceptively named Millionaire's Tax and the proposal to do away with the Qualified Small Business Stock exemption, it seems that Olympia is dead set on killing entrepreneurship in Washington State. Unfortunately, it also seems like either nobody has noticed or that nobody cares. Episode 4 of Foundations Almost Live! is our attempt at getting you up to speed in a way that's not boring (if not equally insane to the proposals themselves). seattlefoundations.org/almos…

HUGE NEWS for US immigration today! Extending H-1B visa grace period from 60 to 180 days was approved at the @WHIAANHPI meeting today and will be announced by USCIS in ~3mos!! For the 100k+ workers affected by layoffs, this is a huge sigh of relief. Thanks @ajainb! 🧵 1/3

New tonight: The GOP states challenging DACA asked a federal judge to strike down the Biden admin's DACA rule. They're asking the court for a ruling that would phase out the immigration program over 2 years. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

Man if you ever get married and need to go through the immigration process, I cannot recommend @chooseboundless enough. Over communication from them, easy forms, and my stress level from one day attempting on my own was gone.

We are automatically extending Green Cards for 24 months when lawful permanent residents file Form I-90 to renew an expiring or expired Green Card. Your I-90 receipt with an expired Green Card is evidence of your continued status. Read here for details: uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/us…

Behavioral biases. Distribution is pretty normal, but 95 always rounds to 100.

The Supreme Court has dismissed an appeal brought by a group of Republican-led states seeking to intervene in a case challenging the Trump-era "public charge" rule: cnn.com/2022/06/15/politics/…

#DACA is now incredibly out-of-date. The 2007 cut-off means that there are now at least 1 million Dreamers who came too late for the program. Immigrants turning 15 this year may have spent 99% of their life here but have no way to legal future here. Immigration law is monstrous.

While the future of the DACA program is still uncertain, Congress is looking at a $3.5 T budget that has $100 b set aside to create a pathway to citizenship for DACA recipients, those with TPS and undocumented essential workers. seattletimes.com/seattle-new…

The fact that this type of lazy racism keeps popping up around Shohei Ohtani speaks to so much of the media being apathetic and lacking any empathy towards the AAPI experience
Jack Morris apologies before Shohei Otani's at-bat in the ninth inning.

If you are Indian or Chinese and have a child in danger of aging out if USCIS doesn't adjudicate your employment-based adjustment of status isn't adjudicated soon, we are able to include you in our lawsuit on a pro bono basis. Please reach out if interested.

The current system forces foreign nationals who graduate from US colleges to leave the country, taking their new skills with them, & also creates a bottleneck of skilled workers from India on H-1B visas who face country-based caps on getting green cards. —@xiaowa @chooseboundless
