Rep. Fitzgerald Statement on Trump Administration’s Reforms to the H-1B Program to Protect American Workers
OCONOMOWOC, WI – Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement after President Trump signed a Proclamation to reform the H-1B visa program to protect American workers.
“President Trump’s action takes a critical step toward putting American workers back at the front of the line. If a company insists it needs specialized foreign labor, it can pay the one-time $100,000 fee, and that money goes right back into strengthening our country.
“Drastic measures must be taken with the H-1B program because small or short-term fixes haven’t worked in the past and, in many cases, haven’t even been seriously attempted. That’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing: confronting the problem head-on and making sure American workers have the priority they deserve.”
