Trump Admin Plans H-1B Changes, Impacts on Workers

The government is thinking about changing how it picks people for H-1B visas, which let skilled workers come to the U.S. now and in the future.

Instead of a random lottery, they might pick people based on how much they get paid, meaning those with higher salaries would get chosen first.

This could make it harder for recent grads and some researchers to get visas, as they often earn less money to begin with.

The idea is still in the planning phase, and the public can share their opinions.

The new rule, if implemented, could change who is able to get these visas.
