Trump is set to suspect new H1-B visas and a few others.

I’m of two minds on this one: The H1-B program has been a mess for a long time. It basically is a way of keeping a steady stream of top talent that will work for less than market rate.
It also is a way of getting top talent into the country.
I have no problem with the temporary suspension, but certainly can see how it would hurt U.S. competitiveness over time.
