#GENIUSAct
Imagine a world where the next Google, Tesla, or Moderna is founded by someone whose visa status won’t hold them back. That’s the vision behind the GENIUS Act—a bold, forward-thinking piece of legislation designed to unlock the full potential of immigrant entrepreneurs in the United States.
GENIUS stands for "Generating Entrepreneurship and Innovation for a United States that succeeds." It aims to create a startup visa for highly skilled immigrants who want to build businesses, create jobs, and drive the U.S. economy forward.
Why does it matter? Because over half of America’s unicorn startups were founded by immigrants. Yet, outdated immigration policies often force these innovators to leave, taking their ideas—and potential jobs—elsewhere.
The GENIUS Act is about saying yes to talent, yes to innovation, and yes to a future where opportunity knows no borders.
