Removing H1B caps? David Sacks and Elon Musk back Sriram Krishnan's view on green cards December 24, 2024 at 02:28AM

Loomer’s accusations prompted swift rebuttals from prominent figures like David Sacks and Elon Musk.

Sriram still supports skills-based criteria for receiving a green card, not making the program unlimited."
