Trump allies push bills to pause and scrap H-1B visas: What does it mean for Indians?

What Happened

Republican lawmakers introduced bills to restrict H-1B visas, citing misuse to replace American workers. Congressman Eli Crane's bill proposes reducing annual cap from 65,000 to 25,000, setting minimum wage USD 200,000, and eliminating dependent sponsorship. Another bill seeks complete H-1B programme elimination, arguing foreign labour displaces American citizens.
