Trump’s $100,000 H-1B Visa Fee Sparks Immigration and Innovation Fears

From Bloomberg Markets and Finance.

From Indra Nooyi to Elon Musk to Sundar Pichai, H-1B visa holders have shaped American innovation. But a new $100,000 fee announced by the Trump administration could change that. We examine the impact on skilled immigrants, startups, and universities. Penn Wharton’s Britta Glennon, FWD.us’s Todd Schulte, and Stanford’s Jure Leskovec explain why the policy may hurt small firms, slow AI development, and push talent abroad. Former visa holder Vijay Ravi shares why he left the US for India, and why others may follow.
