US EditionTrump’s H-1B Visa Stance ‘Nuanced and Common-Sense’, Aim Is to ‘Protect’ American Jobs, Says Press Secretary Leavitt
The White House says Trump supports skilled foreign workers to launch complex factories and train American workers while ensuring companies hire U.S. employees permanently.
- On Monday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Donald Trump has a `nuanced` and `common sense` view and `does not support American workers being replaced`, adding he would `welcome` skilled immigrants who can `teach` Americans.
- To revive U.S. manufacturing, the administration has pursued tariffs and trade deals while recruiting foreign companies investing trillions to build complex plants like chips and batteries.
- Mr. Trump said companies building massive computer chip factories must bring skilled foreign workers to share knowledge and teach American workers, adding firms may `have to bring thousands` whom he would `welcome`.
- The clarification aims to protect U.S. jobs even as Karoline Leavitt said President Donald Trump told foreign firms they `better be hiring my people`, amid tension with MAGA supporters pressing H-1B restrictions.
- Administration officials argue that permitting temporary specialists attracts foreign investment alongside tariffs and trade deals, boosting economic growth and creating good-paying American jobs through complex manufacturing projects.
