In this week’s Immigration Law for Tech Startups podcast, I'm going to talk about what Biden did say about immigration, as well as how tech companies can support their employees in Ukraine, Ukrainians working in the United States, as well as displaced Ukrainians in third countries around the world. 

 

Biden's recent State of the Union address focused primarily on Ukraine. He talked about inflation and the changes in the United States economy. He also framed immigration reform as an issue of economic competitiveness because reuniting families is the morally right thing to do. He talked about the need to fix the immigration system and secure our border as well as some of his key immigration priorities, including immigration reform and a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers.
