TRUMP President Donald J. Trump Is
as We Restore Our
LEADING AN AMERICA
FIRST RECOVERY
President Donald J. Trump is extending and expanding the
suspension of certain visas through the end of the year to
ensure American workers take first priority as we recover
from the economic effects of the coronavirus.
President Trump is extending the pause on new immigrant
visas through the end of the year to ensure we continue
putting American workers first during our ongoing
coronavirus recovery.
President Trump is building on this measure with an
additional pause on several job-related nonimmigrant
visas—H-1Bs, H-2Bs without a nexus to the food-supply
chain, certain H-4s, as well as Ls and certain Js—preserving
jobs for American citizens.
President Trump’s efforts will ensure businesses look to
American workers first when hiring.
Many workers have been hurt through no fault of their
own due to coronavirus and they should not remain on the
sidelines while being replaced by new foreign labor.
The Trump Administration has also finalized regulations
to eliminate the incentive to file an asylum application
for the primary purpose of obtaining an Employment
Authorization Document.
With some exceptions, we should not permit large numbers
of foreign workers to enter the United States at a time when
so many Americans are out of work.
MOVING TO A MERIT-BASED
IMMIGRATION SYSTEM
The Trump Administration will reform our immigration system to
prioritize the highest-skilled workers and protect American jobs.
At President Trump’s direction, the Trump Administration is
taking action to reform our H-1B immigration program.
Under these reforms, the H-1B program will prioritize those
workers who are offered the highest wage, ensuring that the
highest-skilled applicants are admitted.
The Trump Administration will also close loopholes that
have allowed employers in the United States to replace
American workers with low-cost foreign labor.
These reforms will help protect the wages of American
workers and ensure that foreign labor entering our country
is high skilled and does not undercut the United States
labor market.
WIDESPREAD SUPPORT FOR
COMMONSENSE ACTION
The American people stand by President Trump as he takes
commonsense action to preserve jobs for American citizens.
