US Senator Demands End to Work Permits for Student Visa Holders in Washington After H-1B Fee Increase
Washington, D.C. – Following the recent hike in H-1B visa fees, US Senator Chuck Grassley has called for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to stop issuing work authorizations to student visa holders. Senator Grassley argues that allowing these students to work competes directly against American workers and violates existing laws.
He also warned that such practices could put the United States at risk of technology theft and corporate espionage. The senator emphasized the need to protect American jobs and national security by tightening the rules around work permits for foreign students.
This move comes amid growing concerns over:
- Job competition between foreign students and American workers
- Safeguarding sensitive technological advancements within the country
The call to end work permits for student visa holders who work against American interests marks a significant stance in ongoing immigration and employment policy debates. Stay tuned for Questiqa USA for more latest updates.
