Senator Eric Schmitt, who has been speaking against the Optional Practical Training program that foreign students get at the end of their course, revealed some astounding facts only from his state Missouri as he once again demanded that this practice to be ended as it is harming American students. This OPT has for ages served a legal pathway from colleges to cubicles and students on F1 visa can easily get their status changed to H-1B once they are on the right track.
Missouri senator Eric Schmitt said ICE provided him the figure that there are 4430 OPT visas in Missouri alone and many of them are working in jobs that they should not be working in.
