Trump signs proclamation adding $100K annual fee for H-1B visa applications
President Trump has signed a controversial proclamation imposing a hefty $100,000 annual fee for H-1B visa applications, aimed at highly skilled foreign workers. This move, along with the introduction of a $1 million 'gold card' visa for wealthy individuals seeking U.S. citizenship, has sparked significant backlash and is expected to face legal challenges. Critics argue that these actions bypass Congress and could hinder the U.S. economy by limiting access to skilled labor, making it a critical issue for both workers and businesses alike.
