Broad and Blunt, the Trump Administration’s H-1B Changes Miss the Opportunity for Real Reform
Sarah Pierce, Migration Policy Institute (October 2020)
The H-1B visa program had not seen major changes since 1990. The Trump administration has now made a significant change to try and ensure that workers that are citizens of the United States (U.S.) would not be replaced with immigrants. This will limit U.S. businesses from being able to hire skilled immigrant workers. The H1-B program is the primary option for immigrants to obtain employment in the United States.
