H-1B elimination bill formally introduced in US Congress- Marjorie Taylor Greene exits

A bill that seeks to completely end the H-1B visa program has been formally introduced in the US Congress. The move goes far beyond tightening rules and instead aims to shut down the program entirely. The bill, H.R. 6937, was introduced on January 2, 2026, by Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia. Its stated goal is to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act so that the H-1B program no longer exists.

Interestingly, the bill was introduced the same day Greene officially stepped down from Congress.
