H-1B Visa Overhaul: Tech Giants vs. American Workers

The US Department of Homeland Security and Citizenship and Immigration Services plan to revamp the H-1B visa system, sparking debate between tech companies and American workers. The current lottery system is criticized for suppressing US wages and being abused by outsourcing firms. Concerns are raised that H-1B visas contribute to unemployment among US computer science graduates, while tech giants leverage the program to hire foreign workers at lower salaries. Experts suggest reforms should prioritize higher wages, stricter regulation, and mandatory US worker recruitment to address this multifaceted issue.
