Musk and MAGA are fighting over H-1B visas. How do they work?

The article from MSN discusses the controversy surrounding H-1B visas, which are non-immigrant visas allowing U.S. companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has publicly supported the H-1B visa program, arguing that it's essential for attracting top global talent to the U.S., thereby boosting innovation and economic growth. Conversely, some MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters and conservative groups criticize the program, claiming it displaces American workers and depresses wages. They argue that companies misuse the visa to hire cheaper foreign labor. The debate has intensified with legislative proposals like the HIRE Act, which aims to reform the H-1B visa system by increasing wages for visa holders and prioritizing American workers. This clash highlights broader immigration and economic policy debates in the U.S., with significant implications for tech industries and the broader labor market.
