Historically, 85,000 visas are provided to hire so-called high-skilled foreign workers at companies through a lottery process. Mr. Edlow’s proposed changes would have to be approved through the federal government’s rule-making process.

Doug Rand, a former Biden administration official, said changing the H1-B process to favor higher-wage earners was misguided.

“Like it or not, the H-1B program is the main way that U.S. companies can hire the best and brightest international graduates of U.S. universities, and Congress never allowed D.H.S. to put its thumb on the scale based on salary,” he said.

The H1B is a visa category that allows US employers to temporarily hire foreign workers in specialty occupations. Indian nationals account for 72% of H1B visas, data over the years shows. The Chinese come second with 12%.

It's a scam that screws over Americans especially younger people and needs to be abolished ASAP.

In 2021, the median wage of an H-1B worker was $108,000. That's pretty low for a skilled worker visa program.

This program needs to be ended completely. That can only happen by an act of Congress as Congress is the one that created it. I had hoped Trump would rally Congress to do this but his priority has been tax cuts for the rich (both terms).

Prioritizing higher salary workers is fine but doesn't go far enough. 85,000 Americans will still lose out on new jobs every year to foreigners - now it will just be higher earning foreigners.

It will also be good new college grads who don't have to compete with lower end H1bs.

The Trump administration plans to publish a proposed rule to end or significantly change the annual H-1B visa lottery. Near the end of Donald Trump’s first term, the administration proposed ending the current random selection process used each year when H-1B registrations exceed the annual limit of 65,000, plus a 20,000 exemption for individuals with an advanced degree from a U.S. university. In its place, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services would have awarded H-1B petitions based on salary from highest to lowest. Commenters warned the rule violated the statute and would disadvantage recent international students and other early-career professionals.
