Trump Backs H-1B Visas, Says 'I Have Many on My Properties'
Dec 28, 2024, 07:24 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has expressed support for the H-1B visa program, stating that he has always been in favor of the visas. In an exclusive interview with the New York Post, Trump said, 'I've always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That's why we have them. I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I've been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It's a great program.' His stance aligns with that of Elon Musk, as he appears to be siding with Musk in the debate over immigration visas for highly skilled workers. The H-1B program permits companies to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations, and Trump's comments highlight his support for bringing highly skilled foreign workers into the United States.
