San Francisco, California, USA: Indian American venture capitalist Deedy Das will argue in favor of skilled immigration at a public policy debate in San Francisco on January 17. The event is being hosted by The Hamilton Society as part of its Debate XI series.
The debate will examine the resolution, “America Needs More Skilled Immigration to Succeed,” with Das supporting the motion and Nathan Halberstadt of New Founding presenting the opposing view. Organizers say the discussion will weigh the role of global talent in driving US innovation against concerns that large-scale, economically driven immigration could affect social and cultural stability.
The event comes amid renewed scrutiny of US skilled immigration policies, including programs such as the H-1B visa, which face rising fees and political debate. The parliamentary-style discussion is scheduled from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. PST, with venue details to be shared with registered participants.
