Trump to impose new $100,000 fee for H-1B visas in sweeping overhaul: Report - The Economic Times Donald Trump plans significant H-1B visa changes. A $100,000 fee may be imposed on applications. The administration believes the visa program hurts American workers. Entry under the H-1B system will b...

Hmmmm. So, 25% of the US doctors are foreign-trained, and most of them at some point of their career require H1B visa. I don't know how many doctors with active licenses require H1B visa currently, but this is really stupid ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

Iโ€™ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the lifeโ€™s work of so many American scientists. He shouldnโ€™t be in this job.
