[新聞] Trump Expected To Suspend H-1B, Other

[imiss0960 (澄)]

President Trump is expected to sign an order as soon as Saturday to suspend
H-1B, L-1 and other temporary work visas through the end of the year,
according to the multiple sources familiar with the plan.

The new order — which is expected to come with broad exceptions — comes as
the administration continues to wrestle with high unemployment among American
workers because of the coronavirus pandemic as well as kick-start the
economic recovery.

The order would target H-1B visas, which are designed for certain skilled
workers such as those employed in the tech industry, as well as L-1 visas,
which are meant for executives who work for large corporations.

The executive action is also expected to suspend H-2B visas for seasonal
workers such as hotel and construction staff; J-1 visas, which are meant for
research scholars and professors and other cultural and work-exchange
programs. Trump could renew the suspensions when they lapse. The order is not
expected to immediately affect anyone already in the United States.

"No matter how you slice it, this is shaping up to be a big win for American
workers at a critical time," said RJ Hauman, government relations director at
the Federation for American Immigration Reform, which advocates for lower
levels of immigration. FAIR had called on Trump to suspend guest worker visas.
