US lawmakers and community leaders voiced concern over US President Donald Trump’s plan to impose a USD 100,000 fee on H-1B visa applications, calling the move “reckless” and “unfortunate” that will have a “huge negative” impact on the IT industry.
Trump’s USD 100,000 H-1B visa fee is a “reckless attempt to cut America off from high-skilled workers who have long strengthened our workforce, fuelled innovation, and helped build industries that employ millions of Americans,” Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi said.
