他们必须证明有足够合格的美国工人无法获得，并且雇佣外国工人不会对类似受雇美国人的工资和工作条件产生不利影响。相反，特朗普政府自上任伊始就将矛头指向了H-1B签证。这些签证不同于其企业所使用的签证，是面向工程、会计和艺术等专业领域的高技能工人。特朗普最近还对许多H-1B签证申请征收10万美元的费用。
They must demonstrate that enough qualified US workers are unavailable and that employing foreign workers will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of similarly employed Americans.

These, unlike those his businesses use, are for highly skilled workers in specialized fields such as engineering, accounting and the arts. Trump also recently imposed a $100,000 payment on many H-1B visa petitions.
