Comment: EB5 Political Calculations
Political Arguments Against the New EB5 Reg |
Political Calculations Supporting the New EB5 Reg |
This regulation kills jobs in New York, LA, Miami and other major urban centers |
Those in the administration pushing the regulation know that the regulation changes the location of the jobs from affluent urban areas to rural areas. President Trump cannot hope to win New York or California—he is trying to appeal to Wisconsin and Iowa by moving jobs there. |
The administration should be worried about angry voters who are upset about the President not keeping his promise to create American jobs |
The angry voters that affect the President's reelection effort are rural voters in Wisconsin and Iowa who are suffering due to the trade wars. The administration sees using this EB5 regulation to move jobs to rural states as a way of keeping Mr. Trump's promise to create American jobs--for rural voters who will make or break his re-election efforts. |
Additional investment of $1 Billion is a value to New York, Los Angeles and Miami |
$1 Billion of investment has a massive impact on the economies of rural areas that Trump needs to win for his re-election. |
This is an Obama era regulation; ergo, it must be stopped |
The administration stopped all Obama era regulations except this one. This regulation was pushed forward deliberately because it will help re-elect President Trump. |
EB-5 is a merit based immigration system |
EB-5 continues to remain a merit based immigration system under the regulation |

Focus: Email Campaign to EB5 List
The Audience
- We have conducted 70+ H1B to EB5 events in the US in 2018 & 2019 and have a contact list in the low-five-figures of H1B visa holders interested in EB5
- We will send your email campaign to a randomly selected group of 5,000 email addresses
- 98% of the people are in the contiguous 48 states in the US, 90% are Indian (with the rest Pakistani, Bangladeshi, etc.)
- We do not offer list of attendees--only the exhibitors at the event receive attendee lists, the above list is of no-shows only
The Email Campaign
- Your email will be sent out to 5,000 H1Bs interested in EB5.
- The email will use your creative including images; and will contain your contact information, including your phone number, your email address, and link(s) to your website. We will send you a test email for approval before sending the broadcast out.
- The "from" email address will be your email address so you will receive the replies directly from the recipients.
- One week after the email, we will send you basic statistics such as open rates, click rates etc.
Rent vs. Buy
- An email list is “burnt” by excessive use—and it is in our interest, and also in our clients’, interest that the list does not get burnt.
- Therefore, we are not selling our email list itself as then anyone can sell it to multiple parties. The recipients will receive numerous emails thus destroying the value of the list for everyone who uses it. Rather, we are renting the list to about half a dozen clients and timing the emails sent out such that it does not “burn” the list and thus ensuring that our clients get the best results from the email list.
