I like competent people coming to US: says President Trump amid H-1B visa debate

US President Donald Trump has said he likes both sides of the argument on the H-1B foreign guest workers’ visa, noting that the country needs “very competent” and “great” people which is possible through this visa programme.

Trump also said that he has also used the H-1B visa programme.

The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in speciality occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise. Technology companies depend on it to hire tens of thousands of employees each year from countries like India and China.
