Raising the H-1B visa cost to $100K will curb cheap labor abuse taken by many large multinationals, and ensure only high-value, specialized talent enters the U.S. workforce. The added revenue will fund STEM education and upskilling programs, strengthening domestic talent and restoring fairness in the labor market. You’re welcome. Thank you Trump administration.
