Sessions also criticized the Obama government for failing to protect the jobs of American citizens. He mentioned that these visas were the primary reason why Americans are being easily replaced by the foreign nationals at the workplace. In 2016, a similar effort was made when the US Congressmen also introduced a bill that asked the price for acquiring H1B visas from US dollars 60,000 to a minimum of 100,000 US dollars. The bill also demanded the suspension of master’s degree exemption rule.
In the past Trump has been accused of having a hypocritical approach on the entire issue as his own company has hired many foreign workers in the past. Despite this he maintained an extreme stand over the issue of immigration in the country. However, if the new government decides to pass new laws over the sanctioning of H1B and L1 visas, it could cause trouble for Indians who desire move to United States in search of better education and work opportunities.
