This market will resolve to "Yes" if Donald Trump signs any federal legislation or performs any executive action increasing the statutory cap on H-1B visas (currently 65,000 plus an additional 20,000 for advanced degree holders), eliminating the cap, creating new exemptions, or establishing a third category of H-1B visa by April 29, 2025, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Any legislation or executive action officially enacted within the market's timeframe will qualify, regardless of when the changes take effect. If it becomes impossible for Donald Trump to sign such legislation or perform executive action (e.g., he resigns, or is no longer in office), this market will resolve to "No". This market's primary resolution source will be official information from the Trump administration, including federal records of signed legislation and executive actions. A consensus of credible reporting will also be used as necessary.
impossible
"performs any executive action increasing the statutory cap " how is that possible?
It isn’t lol
I think he will satisfy both his maga supporters and his corporate overlords by creating a little more high end legal immigration and cracking down on illegal immigration. Would create a really nice political frame for him to work in, contrasting 'good immigrants' and 'bad immigrants'
MAGA hates the H-1B visa, especially since the system is being used and abused by foreigners who refuse to assimilate. To them, there are no "good immigrants" (unless they're of European heritage)
Will Trump increase the H-1B cap in his first 100 days? Tough call. On one side, tech giants desperately need more engineers. On the other, Todd from Nebraska, who just discovered Python isn't a snake, is furious about the 'stolen' entry-level coding jobs. Either way, Polymarket will probably have an opinion - how they actually decide these things is a story in itself: [link removed]
looking at your profile I suspect you were serving Todd a quarter pounder with fries today. Maybe next time he comes around ask him for career advice - and invest in it instead!!
Guys can someone please send me a dollar or whatever I put all my money in that I had left although it wasn't much, merry Christmas.
You should consider deleting your account mate. Never risk money that you can’t afford to lose.
We’ll see about that …
Nothing ever happens
He's GOING to do it. Whether it's signed in the first 100 days or not is the question
why? elon is dogwalkimg him so indians can do all the labor for cheap instead of americans.
Yes, I'm betting that he will INCREASE the cap. There will be more of them. I just don't know if anything will be official in the first 100 days
sorry, im dyslexic : )
Nick Fuentes warned you...
Nothing could be worse than the last 4 years, and encouraged people to vote for more of it.
