特朗普政府宣布暂停微软、Adobe以及Tata、HCL、Infosys等共8家IT公司参与绿卡工作签证计划3。政府指控这些公司存在签证欺诈行为1。副总统万斯表示,"你们是一家伟大的美国公司,但你们必须雇用优秀的美国工人"2。
这一措施旨在保护美国就业机会,是特朗普政府收紧外籍劳工政策的一部分2。需要指出的是,H-1B签证本身并未被暂停,此举仅针对永久劳工认证申请3。微软回应称,在上个财政年度提交的约6000份H-1B签证申请中,80%是为了延长或变更现有员工身份,而非招聘新员工2。此外,特朗普政府还在对多所大学进行审查1。
The Trump administration has suspended eight technology companies, including Microsoft and Adobe, from participating in the green card employment program, citing concerns about visa fraud and the misuse of foreign worker hiring systems.1234 The suspension targets permanent labor certification applications submitted by these firms for foreign employees, marking a significant tightening of policies governing foreign workers in the United States.
Vice President Vance criticized the suspended companies for prioritizing foreign workers over American citizens, stating that companies "must hire excellent American workers."2 In response, Microsoft disputed the characterization of its hiring practices, noting that approximately 80 percent of the roughly 6,000 H-1B visa applications it submitted during the previous fiscal year were intended to extend or change the status of existing employees rather than recruit new workers.2 The suspension does not affect H-1B visas themselves, only the green card program participation.3
The action represents part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to restrict foreign labor access, which also includes ongoing investigations into multiple universities.14 The suspended companies reportedly include Microsoft, Adobe, Tata, HCL, and Infosys, among others.3
