Agree

Increase

Hubert Humphrey was a liberal Democrat who generally supported immigration and believed in the benefits it brought to the American economy. However, the specific issue of high-skilled immigrant workers and temporary work visas was not a major topic during his time, so it's hard to say definitively how strongly he would agree.

Increase, our economy relies on businesses hiring the highest skilled workers at the lowest cost

Slightly agree

Decrease, and the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs

Humphrey was a strong advocate for education and job training, so he might support the idea of preparing American citizens for high-skilled jobs. However, this doesn't necessarily mean he would want to decrease the number of temporary work visas for high-skilled immigrant workers.

Slightly disagree

Decrease, companies are currently taking advantage of this program to decrease wages
