Trump administration moves to revoke 200,000 visas, impose $103K H-1B fee
DHS says the fee could raise $8.8 billion a year as the administration seeks to curb legal immigration and redraw employer visa access.
- The Trump administration is targeting 200,000 visas, proposing a $103,265 fee for H-1B skilled-worker visas and planning mass revocations for B-1 and B-2 visa holders who later sought asylum in the United States.
- Officials argue asylum claims function as a loophole to circumvent United States immigration laws, prompting the Department of Homeland Security to use the visa system to tighten overall immigration pathways.
- DHS estimates the proposed fee could generate roughly $8.8 billion annually while affecting technology, manufacturing, and health care sectors. This represents the largest single mass visa revocation in United States history.
- Defending the crackdown Monday, Deputy Secretary State Christopher Landau wrote that asylum is not a loophole to circumvent immigration laws, though legal challenges are expected from businesses and advocates.
- Secretary State Marco Rubio emphasized earlier this year that a visa is not a guaranteed right, stressing there is no constitutional right to enter the United States as a visitor.
