California sues Trump administration over $100,000 H-1B visa fee

California and a coalition of 19 US states have taken the administration of former President Donald Trump to court, challenging a new fee that would see foreign workers being charged $100,000 in order to receive H-1B visas. The H-1B visa program, used by many tech companies with roots in California, allows US employers to bring in skilled foreign workers to fill specialized roles.

The move is seen as particularly significant for the state's high-tech industry, which relies heavily on workers who have been granted these visas. As a result, the lawsuit is likely to have far-reaching implications for the sector.
 
this is getting crazy lol 🤯 100k fee for h-1b visa holders? that's insane! tech companies in california are gonna lose their minds when they hear this news 🤑 what's next? charging us tax just to attend a meet up or something? 🤦‍♂️ and who decides on these fees anyway? seems like some dude with a calculator just made some arbitrary number up 📊 and now they're taking it to court? so many techies in california are counting on h-1b visas to get their jobs done, this could be a disaster 💥
 
🤔 It's about time someone spoke up for those being screwed over. $100k is an insane fee for H-1B visas - like, what kind of thinking is that? It's not like the foreign workers are just magically going to start raking in six figures on their first day. The fact that it's even a thing that's being challenged in court makes me think there's some serious money changing hands here...
 
I just read this and I'm low-key freaking out 🤯 California and 19 other states are suing over a new fee for H-1B visas, which would basically make it super expensive for companies to hire foreign workers 💸 Like, how are we supposed to find all these talented people if they're charging them $100k just to work here? 🤔 I get that it's gotta be about the economy and all, but what about innovation? Don't we want our tech giants to keep pushing boundaries? 🚀 And what about all the people who rely on these visas for their livelihoods? It's not like they can just up and move to another country or something 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, this lawsuit is definitely gonna be a wild ride 🎢
 
omg this is crazy, like literally can't believe they're doing this 🤯 $100k is insane, who thought that was a good idea? it's already so hard for companies to find qualified workers in the first place, now they're gonna have to shell out 6 figures just to get some tech talent? no thanks!
 
I'm thinking, what's the deal with this new fee? $100,000 is crazy talk! I mean, I get it, the administration wants to bring in some extra cash, but do they really think that's gonna solve all their problems? And who gets hit with this fee again, foreign workers? They're just trying to make a living and contribute to the US economy. It doesn't seem fair to me... 🤔

And what about the tech companies that rely on these H-1B visas? Are they gonna have to raise salaries or something to compensate for the extra cost? I think this could hurt small businesses in the long run. I'm curious, how's this gonna play out? Will the states succeed in their lawsuit and change the fee, or will it stay put? 🤞
 
I'm fuming about this new fee for foreign workers with H-1B visas 🤯! It's like they're trying to strangle the whole tech industry in California. I mean, what's the logic behind charging them $100k? Are they serious?! That's just crazy talk 💥.

And let me tell you, it's not just about the money, it's about the talent. These foreign workers are the backbone of our country's high-tech sector. They're the ones who bring in the expertise and innovation that keeps US companies competitive 🤖. Without them, we'd be lost.

I'm also worried about the impact this will have on startups and small businesses. They can't afford to pay these exorbitant fees, it's just not possible 💸. And what about the jobs? Will all these foreign workers lose their visas and have to leave the country? It's a nightmare scenario 😱.

This lawsuit is a big deal, not just for California, but for the entire US tech industry 🤝. We need to stand up for our workers and fight this fee. It's time to think about the bigger picture here 🌆.
 
So there's a bunch of states goin' after Trump's fee for foreign H-1B workers and it's like "hey Donald, we know you're tryin' to make us pay up, but we're not havin' it!" 100 grand is some serious cash, I mean I've seen better deals on a used iPhone 📱. But seriously, this fee thing is gonna hit the tech industry hard, especially Cali. They're all like "no way, Jose" and now they're takin' Trump to court. This is gonna be a wild ride, let's see how it plays out!
 
🤔 the idea of charging $100k for an H-1B visa is bloody ridiculous 🤑 I mean, what's next? A $10m entry fee for being born in the US? 🤷‍♂️ tech companies are already getting ripped off by Amazon and Google over labor costs... now they're going to have to shell out extra cash just to get some talented folks in from abroad? 🤑 it's all about the benjamins, mate.
