Texas GOP chairman Abraham George clashed with the founder of the Indian-American Advocacy Council Sidharth on social media over H-1B and asked the latter whether he was afraid that he would be deported. The online spat came at a time when Indian-American groups are concerned over the increasing hate against Indians in the US. The argument started after Abraham George called for an end to H-1B and said this visa program is full of fraud.
"H-1B visas are full of fraud and displacing American workers. It has to stop. We must make it a legislative priority of the Texas GOP to rid our state of H-1Bs and put Texans first. #AmericaFirst," George posted. Abraham George was born in India and came to the US when he was 16. Thousands of Indians come to the US on H-1B visas, though people from other countries too come to the US on this visa program. The current India-hatred and the attack on the H-1B visa program are going on simultaneously in MAGA circles.
