Isn't this the same "leaked executive" order that was being discussed few days back ? This news items has nothing new. Also, government's "American First" approach would always result into another mess like "war on drugs". Somehow American workers should come first but not the American company!

> Raising tech salaries and reducing the ridiculous exploitation of immigrant tech workers is good.

Why not raise it to $200K or another arbitrary number if increasing wages are a good thing ? All increased wages would mean american corporations will be less competitive and hence it hurts average American consumer who perhaps is more poorer than the tech worker.

I sense "American First" is more of a "No Browns and Asians" that is likely to hurt entire tech industry.
