Immigration attorneys are bracing for President-elect Donald Trump to revive the restrictive immigration policies of his first term, including a 2020 attempt to ban H-1B visas, the temporary work visa for high-skilled foreign workers.


The article from MSN discusses the potential impact of Donald Trump's proposed immigration policies on the H-1B visa program, which could create a rift between him and Elon Musk. Trump has historically criticized the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations, arguing that it displaces American workers. His administration previously implemented measures to restrict the program. Conversely, Elon Musk, who relies heavily on skilled foreign labor for his companies like Tesla and SpaceX, has been a proponent of expanding high-skilled immigration. The article highlights that if Trump were to enact stricter policies or ban the H-1B visa, it might not only affect Musk's business operations but also strain their relationship, given Musk's public support for Trump in the past. This issue underscores a broader debate on immigration policy, balancing economic needs with political ideologies.
