Trump's $100,000 H-1B visa fee threatens rural schools and hospitals reliant on immigrant workers

The recent proposal to impose a $100,000 fee on H-1B visas by Trump poses a significant threat to rural schools and hospitals that depend on immigrant workers. For instance, the Crow Creek Tribal School in South Dakota is struggling with 15 unfilled teaching positions, highlighting the critical role these workers play in maintaining educational and healthcare services in underserved areas. This situation underscores the potential negative impact of such policies on communities that rely heavily on skilled immigrants.
