(PDG de Facebook Mark Zuckerberg lance groupe politique)
"We have a strange immigration policy for a nation of immigrants," Zuckerberg wrote.
(«Nous avons une politique d'immigration étrange pour une nation d'immigrants», a écrit Zuckerberg.)
Teaming up with other Silicon Valley leaders, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has formally launched a political group aimed at revamping immigration policy, boosting education and encouraging investment in scientific research.
Zuckerberg announced the formation of Fwd.us (pronounced "forward us") in an op-ed article in The Washington Post late Wednesday. In it, he said the U.S. needs a new approach to these issues if it is to get ahead economically. This, he wrote, includes offering talented, skilled immigrants a path to citizenship.
'We have a strange immigration policy for a nation of immigrants.'

"And it's a policy unfit for today's world."
The move comes as a bipartisan Senate group is expected to roll out on a comprehensive immigration bill in the coming days. Zuckerberg's goal echoes the proposed legislation. He said he wants "comprehensive immigration reform that begins with effective border security, allows a path to citizenship and lets us attract the most talented and hardest-working people, no matter where they were born."
Zuckerberg also calls for higher standards and accountability in schools and increased focus on learning about science, technology, engineering and math. Today's knowledge and ideas-based economy, the 28-year-old Harvard dropout wrote, is very different from the economy of the 20th century that was based on natural resources, industrial machines and labor.
Fwd.us, he said, was created to "to build the knowledge economy the United States needs to ensure more jobs, innovation and investment."
Also backing the group are tech leaders such as LinkedIn Corp. CEO Reid Hoffman, venture capitalists John Doerr and Jim Breyer, as well as Ruchi Sanghvi of Dropbox, who was Facebook's first female engineer. Joe Green, founder of Causes.com, a social network for community organizing, serves as the group's president and founder.
Major contributors include Google chairman Eric Schmidt, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, SpaceX and Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk, Zynga Inc. CEO Mark Pincus and former Groupon CEO Andrew Mason.
The formation of Zuckerberg's group was reported by The Associated Press and other outlets last month.

Zuckerberg a annoncé la formation d'Fwd.us (prononcé "avant nous") dans un article d'opinion dans le Washington Post mercredi soir.

"Et c'est une impropres à la politique pour le monde d'aujourd'hui."
Le mouvement vient car on s'attend à un groupe bipartisan du Sénat à rouler sur un vaste projet de loi sur l'immigration dans les prochains jours. L'objectif de Zuckerberg fait écho au projet de loi.

Zuckerberg appelle également à des normes plus élevées et la responsabilisation dans les écoles et mis l'accent sur l'apprentissage de la science, technologie, ingénierie et mathématiques. Les connaissances d'aujourd'hui et de l'économie basée sur les idées, le 28-year-old abandon Harvard a écrit, est très différente de l'économie du 20e siècle qui a été basée sur les ressources naturelles, les machines industrielles et du travail.
