The reason why diversity is good is because it helps break down enclaves and bubbles and let's the dominant culture play a bigger role. When people from one nation migrate en masse are they forced to integrate into their new environment and culture or they do they form ethnic and cultural enclaves that resist the dominant culture and form a concrete in group that resists outsiders, including the native population?

Country quotas have existed across the globe and history for a reason. People inherently have in group preferences, they are nationalist, that includes migrants.

First of all, this bill benefits people that are already in the US and working there for close to a decade, so all that text about diversity in your post is completely irrelevant.

Looks like you need to advocate for national quotas on H1B visas, so you're barking up the wrong tree.

>Country quotas have existed across the globe and history for a reason

Not really. Do you have examples of other countries still enforcing a country quota on work visas?
