H1B visa row: Influencer corrects MAGA over ‘Indian store clerk’ claim; ‘don’t understand why…’

Conservative commentator Bill Mitchell publicly rebuked a faction within the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement that claims H-1B visas are being used to bring Indians into the U.S. as low-skilled workers, like “store clerks.”

Mitchell argued that the H-1B program was never meant for clerical roles but is explicitly designed for “degreed individuals with very special skills.”
