Tech Leaders, Including Musk and Nadella, Once H-1B Visa Holders

The H-1B visa program is being reviewed by the U.S. government.

This program allows skilled workers from other countries to work in the U.S. Many successful tech leaders, including Elon Musk (Tesla) and Satya Nadella (Microsoft), once used this visa to work in the U.S. The government is looking at making changes to the program.

The current administration has proposed changes.

These leaders have publicly supported the program.

Some had to overcome many hurdles to get these visas.

The goal is to update the program.
