Laura Loomer may be backing to bashing Indians after the India Today Conclave. Loomer took to X and posted a statement where she said that she would never apologize for supposedly speaking out for American workers.
Loomer in her statement conveniently seems to forget that Indian Americans are Americans too. In her statement Loomer says: “Today, I spoke at the @IndiaToday Conclave conference in New Delhi, India about my ardent opposition to H1B visas, why I am anti-Islam, and why I am anti-mass immigration to the US. I urged Indians to have empathy for American students and American workers who are having their employment aspirations take away from them by cheap Indian labor via the H1B visa program.”

Prior to her attending the India Today Conclave, Loomer has posted vile and racist rhetoric on her social media, abusing Indians unfairly painting them as a major cause for almost every problem the Americans face. She deleted those posts before visiting India but many users were able to save evidence of her India hate.
Loomer went on to say in her statement: “If Indians want stereotypes to end, they must understand Americans have every right to want to put themselves and their job security first. Americans have every right to feel angry that they are not being given the opportunity to work in their own country in STEM fields while Indians are imported to the US to do the jobs Americans want. More Indians should be supportive of H1B visa reforms and crackdowns on immigration and labor. I would like to see India be a supportive partner to the American people by not playing into the games of the Leftist Big Tech CEOs who have created this mess by making Americans jobless and turning Indians into slaves. Both the American people and the Indian people deserve better. In the United States, our jobs are our jobs. How would the Indian people like it if the reverse were taking place and Americans were being mass imported into India to take all of the best jobs in STEM? There would be riots. Let’s be honest.”
