For what it's worth, as a fellow immigrant on a work visa (O-1 here… wasn't eligible for H-1B), the stress around a visa status is nothing new. It's been a constant struggle since I moved to the USA in 2009; and all 8 years of Obama were pretty bad too. Trump might be bad, but the immigrant struggles are nothing new, and won't change regardless of whether the administration is blue or red.

Definitely leaving a bad taste. Some amount of "lock-in" period to laws so that people can plan their lives better would definitely help. But hey... I'm no lawmaker.
