H-1B Abuse Under Fire: Florida Governor orders a crackdown on H-1B visa program in universities
The opposition to the H-1B foreign worker visa program is increasing and has now extended to US universities. Governor Ron DeSantis has instructed the Florida Board of Governors to intensify efforts against the abuse of H-1B visas within the higher education sector. This directive aims to address concerns over the misuse of these visas in the context of academic institutions in Florida.
It is important to know that Florida has not yet banned or ended H-1B hirings across its universities. The Governor’s directive is to reduce the abuse of H-1B hirings by universities in Florida.
