A group of unions, higher education professionals and a staffing agency, among others, have sued the Donald Trump administration over its decision to charge a $100,000 fee for H-1B visas that allowed skilled foreign workers to work in the US.
The lawsuit, the first major challenge to Trump’s H-1B visa plan, was filed in a federal court in San Francisco on Friday. The plaintiffs include the Justice Action Center, the Democracy Forward Foundation and South Asian American Justice Collaborative, the New York Times reported.
