Whether it is technology or policy making, Elon Musk is all about pragmatism. The tech billionaire is urging the US government to strengthen its immigration policy. The concern about current immigration policies comes from the influx of illegal immigrants into the country.
Elon Musk is taking the government to task for ensuring more people illegally move to the US. Former Twitter (now X) CEO believes it makes matters unfair for legal immigrants with skills and aptitude to move to America. The year-old businessman and entrepreneur wants things to change for those seeking domestic visas.

Elon Musk Expresses Concern Over Increasing Illegal Immigration In US
The US government will miss out on foreign talent unless they make bureaucratic procedures for legal immigrants less complicated. Once again, Elon Musk is telling it how it is. SpaceX founder and CEO is criticizing the US policy that is soft on immigrants entering the country illegally.
Elon Musk strongly disagrees with the current policies that cast aside hopeful legal immigrants. While responding to the shocking statistics about immigration, the former CEO of Twitter (now X) said the government should immediately “halt illegal immigration and substantially increase legal immigration.”
While it is trivial to enter the United States illegally, it is insanely difficult for legal immigrants to move to the United States.

This is madness! We should shut down illegal immigration and greatly increase legal immigration. https://t.co/ElW9PZaIqh

SpaceX Founder And CEO Faces Legal Trouble
Elon Musk’s concern for immigrants has come at a strange time. The SpaceX founder and CEO has been slammed with a lawsuit from former SpaceX employees. The employees were unethically let go after they raised concerns about how their founder and CEO’s tweeting eccentricities in the past violated diversity policies and workplace conduct.
The complaint was filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The 52-year-old billionaire and investor wasted no time to counter-sue the labor agency on the grounds of its “unconstitutional structure.” The labor board has set March 5, 2023, as the date for the case hearing. If the tech billionaire is found guilty of violating federal laws, harsh financial punishments are in order.
