US may axe OPT, threatening Indian students: Can America’s tech sector absorb shock? What it means
A Republican-led bill, H.R. 2315, aims to eliminate the OPT programme, jeopardising post-study work rights for international students—especially Indians, who dominate STEM-OPT participation. Critics call it a “job theft” loophole, but data shows OPT fuels U.S. innovation, university funding, and tech firms. Killing it could gut America’s global talent pipeline—and its competitive edge.
