The ban will also impact seasonal employees and other workers with few exceptions. As talk about this more help reporter s decision could affect the bay area economy, but welcoming back to the roman, the president and ceo, welcome. Good morning, gasia. Will be the greatest impact here in the bay area or perhaps Silicon Valley as a result of this decision . Well, the economy is facing headwinds, and Silicon Valley is such an important area of the bay areas economy, as well as california and the countries, so we are all in competition, globally, to lead in innovation, and we rely heavily on people who are foreign in our country, to fill jobs, and this is maybe somewhat of a symbolic move, because at this very moment, there is not a lot of immigrants coming in the country, because of covid19. But it is an important symbol, it says the United States isnt prepared to compete by hiring the best and brightest people and allowing them to compete for jobs here, if they cannot go here. They will go somewhere else, and there are countries like canada have been aggressive in sending out the welcome flag saying, if you have the credentials, come to toronto, and we would love to have you there to dissipate in our growing tech economy. How soon will be see a real impact in terms of ideas not coming to the table, jobs being lost, exeter, here in the bay area. This is a period of time in the tech industries, the world is watching how Silicon Valley does. There are constant stories that predict Silicon Valleys fall because of various competitive pressures. This is a serious issue. We are not the only region in our country that relies on these visas, and in new york there is many more of these folks than we do. In terms of innovation and technology, americas leadership is at risk. If innovation is not led by america, then it has a huge impact on Silicon Valley in the future. Lets talk about whats happening, nationally, and locally. Some 36 million americans are out of work in the United States. Here in california, it is starkly high, higher than 16 . If the goal is to get people who are in this country and people already in our state employed, might this help do that . No, not at all, because the areas where h1 pvc visas, fairly have fairly low unemployment historically. When we allow Foreign Workers to come in that really boosts the economy in that critical area, which is the global leading area that drives economies, it boosts opportunities for American Workers as well. And for, i think one of your guests mentioned in an earlier comment, so overall economists do better when we allow the best people to come in and lead in innovation. It hurts American Workers otherwise. It hurts all workers. I read somewhere recently that two thirds of all workers in Silicon Valley are foreign born. Does it Say Something that Silicon Valley relies so much on the intelligence and expertise of people who werent raised here in the bay area . I think it says the Education System in america isnt being all it can be. Other countries, india is a phenomenal example, of graduating people with more Computer Tech sciences, engineering, and so forth. I think our system needs reform. Maybe this is a good time to do it, because we are really thinking with covid19, how we can do things differently and better. But, we are also a Global Economy and attracting people from other societies, who grew up with different cultures and ways of approaching problems. It is also a good way to drive innovation. And so we dont want to have an economy based on all the people being from the same place did it is beneficial to have other places, around this country, and around the world. All right. Jim, i will have to leave it here. The head of the bay area council, thank you for joining us this money. It was a pleasure, thank you.
