You might assume that even the biggest immigrant bashers would welcome bright, young people to the United States who have proven records as entrepreneurs.
That was the thinking of the Obama administration. Shortly before President Barack Obama left the White House, he created by executive order the International Entrepreneur Rule, which laid out a way for immigrant entrepreneurs to legally stay in the U.S. to start or grow new companies.
But the Trump administration, in a characteristically knee-jerk act of hostility toward immigration in almost any form, shelved the rule.
For the sake of one of our nation’s greatest historic strengths a vibrant spirit of entrepreneurialism the Biden administration should restore the rule, ideally through legislation rather than simply an executive order.
