RAMROD 117,032 Posted September 22, 2025 Share Posted September 22, 2025 The work-based visa, popular with tech companies, has come under increasing scrutiny in 2025 against a backdrop of tougher immigration enforcement by the Trump administration and a simmering anti-immigrant sentiment in the U.S. Trump has been under pressure to act on the H-1B, despite being vocal in his support for the program over the years. The visa, which sees tens of thousands of new and renewed applications each year, has become a focal point for those seeking a more restrictive approach. Trump's new H-1B visa fee is intended to curb the hiring of foreign over domestic workers in the U.S. H-1B visas are often used by tech companies to bring in foreign talent with particular skills they need. Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun was asked about the new visa fees, which would impact skilled workers heading from China to the U.S., at a regular press briefing on Monday, September 22. "In the era of globalization, the cross-border flow of talent has driven technological progress and economic development worldwide," Guo said, according to a translation of his remarks by China's state-run Global Times. "China welcomes outstanding talents from all industries and fields globally to come to China, take root in China, and jointly promote the continuous progress of human society while achieving personal career development." The H-1B visa issue is likely to be another irritant in relations between China and the U.S. On a related issue, China last month expressed frustration with the Trump administration over what it called the "unwarranted interrogations, harassment, and deportations" of Chinese students in the U.S. https://www.newsweek.com/china-h-1b-visa-donald-trump-100k-2133530?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=reddit_influencers (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ ᶠʳᵒⁿᵗ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈ ᵉⁿᵉᵐʸ (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
