“Washington could make our lives easier as business people and make our companies more competitive if it did two things. First, the government should end the cap on the high-skill H-1B visa so we can bring more engineers from around the world into American startups and other high tech companies. Second, we have to control the cost of health-care premiums, which limit American companies' ability to hire to the extent we otherwise could. When we talk about health care, access should not be the only concern. Costs must be controlled as well.”
