JD Vance calls the H-1B visa program ‘completely broken,’ says he’d support abolishing it

The Economic Times reports that Vice President JD Vance said he would support eliminating the H-1B visa program, which he called “completely broken.” He argued that companies use it to replace American workers with cheaper foreign labor and defended the administration’s $100,000 fee on certain H-1B petitions. The paper says a federal magistrate blocked the fee on October 1 over the administration’s failure to follow required rulemaking procedures.
