Judge Blocks H-1B Visa Fee
from Phoenix News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A federal judge in Boston has struck down a controversial $100,000 fee imposed by the previous administration on new H-1B visas, calling it an unlawful tax created without congressional approval. The fee, intended to protect American jobs, was deemed unconstitutional by the court, which ruled that its substance — not its name — made it a tax. Twenty states joined the legal challenge, and while the administration plans to appeal, the ruling currently blocks the fee. This decision reignites debate over skilled immigration and the balance of power between executive action and legislative authority.
