Long-time advocate for high-skill immigration reform. Called reform "one of the easiest policy wins" for the US. In September 2025 expressed measured support for Trump's $100,000 H-1B fee, saying "streamlining that process and also outlining financial incentives seems good to me" — framing higher costs as a merit filter. Previously stated the US should embrace immigrants who want to come: "embracing them is the key to keeping it that way."
