The $100,000 Visa: How Trump's H-1B Policy is Changing the Tech Industry

Is the H-1B visa system finally being fixed, or is it being destroyed? In this video, we dive deep into the controversial history and current state of the H-1B visa. From its creation in 1952 to the recent, massive increase in sponsorship costs—from $5,000 to a staggering $100,000—we explore how these changes are impacting hundreds of thousands of workers and the American tech sector. We discuss the real problems with the system, including worker abuse and the lack of pathways to citizenship, while questioning if the latest policies are motivated by economic protectionism or something else. Will this lead to more American jobs, or just more offshoring? Join the conversation on the future of skilled labor in the U.S.
