High-skilled Indian workers RALLY_3
About 200 Indians rallied in front of the White House on Saturday in support of a Trump administration plan for a “merit-based” immigration system that they argue would benefit thousands of high-skilled visa holders who’ve waited years to become legal permanent residents.

The demonstrators, many of them software engineers and other technical workers from South Asia who hold H1-B visas, said a backlog in green card applications has kept them in limbo while their children face the risk of becoming too old to benefit from the immigration process as dependents.

At the rally, organized by the Illinois-based Republican Hindu Coalition, they urged President Trump to cut through the backlog and place a higher priority on the problems faced by immigrants in the United States legally.

“When I came here, my daughter was 6 years old,” said Nandu Konduri, 45, a software engineer in North Carolina who has been waiting for his green card application to be processed since 2007. “Many kids have already aged out. We feel stuck.”
