A federal judge rejected the Trump admin's argument the $100,000 H-1B fee was not a “tax” but merely “a regulatory payment.” The Supreme Court has ruled the power to tax belongs to Congress, not the president (or Stephen Miller). @mclem.org @douglasrivlin.bsky.social

DOL’s proposed rule to price H-1B and employment green card holders out of the US labor market is likely illegal. DOL invents facts and uses a questionable methodology to justify raising prevailing wages by up to 33%. @mclem.org @adamposen.bsky.social
www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...
The Labor Dept is finalizing a rule to force out H-1Bs by raising their min. wages to baselessly high levels. The new rule would mandate increases of ~$26K and disqualify H-1B wage offers for about 80% of H-1B workers in 2026, including for the most experienced (Level IV)

DOL has offered an arbitrary benchmark, reverse-engineered percentiles, and a self-defeating methodology.
Many tech CEOs have pushed back against the federal immigration crackdown, including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, and Elon Musk, who’s defended H-1B visas.
