Governor DeSantis once again proves he walks the walk and he talks the talk.
🚨 BREAKING: In a bombshell moment, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ABOLISHES H-1B VISAS from being used at state universities

"We can do it with Florida RESIDENTS or AMERICANS! If we can't? Then man, we need to REALLY look deeply at what's going on with this situation!"

DeSantis figures there are plenty of people in America who are able to teach college students and it they are not, there is something wrong with our University system. From now on, there won't be HB-1 visas used at Florida state universities. Good.
Always setting the standard.

Best executive in the GOP, hands down.
Every red state Governor should follow the DeSantis roadmap. https://t.co/FAPGi5BMAy
This is something every red state Governor can implement immediately. Conservatives must use every lever of power available to ensure the GOP is truly the America First party.
💯 If any universities truly “need” to import H1Bs to fill jobs, the question is why the university isn’t properly preparing its own American students for those roles? https://t.co/EJR2MpYHoc

Seems logical.
Why hasn’t Texas done this, yet? https://t.co/NpjUX1iKtb

Let's go, Governor Abbott!
Excellent leadership

No reason for every GOP governor not to follow this example https://t.co/XuGSj8WbWV
Why aren't they?
This is indeed huge. Foreigners should not be in taxpayer-funded universities, let alone overrunning them the way they are today. USF in Florida is a huge abuser of this and i think has the largest H1b enrollment in the state. Taxpayers fund these, so it should be for Floridians. https://t.co/KaJZz4ZLwT

This will end the ability of all Florida State Universities from having foreign professors experts on their field.

It is a big hit to the ability to teach Floridians. But a great experiment to see the consequences of those policy. Will they just fire all the professors? https://t.co/wDFv9Pm2IC
There are experts in every field in the United States. They can teach these students.
Excellent stuff. The H-1B program is massive scam – get rid of it altogether! https://t.co/PbPORC7qwN

REAL. REPUBLICAN. GOVERNANCE.

We don't need H1-Bs in universities!
There is no excuse now. Every republican state needs to follow Florida's example. https://t.co/uWJxc74aBN
This is a sensible, attainable, and moderate solution and any Republican governor who doesn’t do this or something comparable should be viewed as suspect https://t.co/cX1CcfD5sp

If they aren't willing to follow suit, they should be ready to answer why.
They shouldn't be used for any state employment of any kind.

State jobs are massively staffed by foreigners looking for pensions.
This should be the next step.
