Once again, Tyrant #Trump ruins everything.
1. The abrupt rollout of the $100k fee for H-1B visa holders caused panicked workers to try to return to the US on basically no notice - only to later learn the fee only applies to new applicants.
2. Economists agree: bringing skilled foreign workers has been immensely valuable for the US economy. Now we're going to lose much of that.
3. Other nations are already spinning up programs to attract skilled foreign workers, to take advantage of the talent we're rejecting.
This is yet another case where Trump's short-sighted policies will cause long-lasting damage to the US.
