President Trump diverges from his supporters on the H-1B visa program, which allows American companies to hire high-skilled foreign workers. Despite opposition to immigration among his base, Trump recognizes the benefits of the program from his own business experiences. This stance puts him at odds not just with voters but also with political figures like Bernie Sanders. Critics argue that H-1B workers, while earning high wages, may inadvertently harm job prospects for American workers. The debate around the program is intensified by influential figures like Elon Musk, who employs a substantial number of H-1B workers.
Trump's support for H-1B visas contradicts some of his base's beliefs, as he acknowledges their value from personal business experience.
H-1B workers are highly educated and earn significant wages, but critics argue their status creates workplace vulnerabilities and adversely affects U.S. workers.
The H-1B program, which allows companies to hire foreign workers, has been both praised for nurturing talent and criticized for impacting American job markets.
Musk's influence on Trump and the continuing debate around the H-1B program highlights the complex dynamics of immigration policy and economic needs.
