Back to EpisodesVance Urges GOP to Scrap H-1B, Boost American Jobs
Description
Vice President JD Vance rallies college students, urging them to advocate for the elimination of the H-1B visa program. He argues that the program allows companies to hire foreign workers at lower wages, undercutting job opportunities for American graduates. Vance, who previously introduced a bill targeting the program in the Senate, emphasizes the need for Congressional action to implement lasting changes. The debate over H-1B visas highlights a divide within the Republican party, with tech industry leaders supporting the program for filling skill gaps, while populists like Vance view it as a wage-killer that hinders American talent. Recent graduates face increased competition in the job market, particularly in tech, where hiring has slowed. The conversation around skilled worker visas is being reshaped by economic concerns for young Americans.
