JD Vance Supports Eliminating H-1B Visa Program Citing Worker Replacement Concerns
US Vice President JD Vance expressed support for eliminating the H-1B visa program, describing it as "completely broken" and misused by companies to replace American workers with cheaper foreign labor. He cited examples where foreign workers earn less than displaced Americans, arguing this undermines the program's intent to bring highly skilled talent. The H-1B system allows employers to hire foreign specialists in fields like technology and healthcare, with an annual cap of 85,000 visas, though some categories are exempt.
