Trump extending immigration ban for ‘America first’ recovery from COVID-19; AC Can Help Prevent C-Virus Spread, and Other C-Virus Updates
President Trump will sign an executive order on Monday suspending several popular working visas until the end of the year — extending an order introduced at the height of the coronavirus crisis.
The new restrictions will apply to a host of employment-based visas and the administration estimates the restriction will free up as many as 525,000 jobs for Americans between now and the end of 2020, a senior administration official said, with more than 21 million people out of work, according to May data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The ban on new visas applies to H-1B visas, which are used by major American technology companies, and their immediate families, H-2B visas for nonagricultural seasonal workers, J-1 visas for exchange students and L-1 visas for managers of multinational corporations.
The extended ban will also apply to H-2B visas for short-term seasonal workers in other non-farm jobs such as landscaping and J-1 visas for short-term workers including nannies and young people on gap years from college.
