propose a proper regulation for extending the STEM OPT before 02/2016 to avoid expected shock to both firms and students

Created by P.K. on August 19, 2015

the regulation for extending the STEM OPT to 29 months (from 12 months) invalid due to lack of public notice and comment. The ruling, which will be effective in Feb 2016, will cause major disruption in labor market and education sector. Companies in various industries will lose a large number of contributing foreign employees, who will also have to face severe hardship.
