【🚨Breaking! 20 states in the US are collectively furious and have sued the Trump administration! Who exactly is affected by the $100,000 'outrageous visa fee'? What kind of talent competition and power struggle is hidden behind this legal battle that shocks the technology and education sectors? 🔥】
The whole nation is in an uproar! California, New York, Illinois, and 17 other states have joined forces to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration in federal court, directly accusing it of the alleged illegality of the '100,000-dollar H-1B visa fee' ⚖️.
'The president has no right to collect this money!' California Attorney General Rob Bonta stated firmly 📢. The law clearly stipulates that visa fees can only be used to cover approval costs, and the $100,000 fee is 'completely outrageous'. He emphasized that the power to charge fees lies with Congress, and the president cannot unilaterally decide.
Trump made his position clear back in September: significantly increasing visa fees is intended to ensure that the US attracts the 'most top-notch, irreplaceable' talent 🎯. Previously, the visa fees paid by companies were typically in the thousands of dollars.
What is the H-1B visa? It is the main work visa for foreign professionals in the US and is also the 'lifeline' 💉 for technology giants in Silicon Valley. Companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Google have long relied on it to recruit top engineers from around the world.
The plaintiffs point out that the exorbitant fees will severely impact multiple industries such as education and healthcare 🏥—not only creating a massive economic burden but also exacerbating labor shortages. The US Chamber of Commerce and the American Association of University Professors have also filed lawsuits.
Latest twist: In the face of a tidal wave of lawsuits, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services quietly 'backed off' at the end of October, significantly narrowing the applicability of the high fees 📉, stating that it does not apply to current holders and does not affect applicants before September 21.
A nationwide confrontation over talent, law, and power is intensifying!
👇What do you think? Is the exorbitant visa fee a reasonable threshold for selecting top talent, or is it an excessive administrative act that violates the rule of law? How will this lawsuit affect the global flow of tech talent? Come to the comments section and share your views!
