H-1B Visa: Now the name of another American CEO has been added to the ongoing controversy regarding H-1B visa in America. Till now there was hue and cry over increasing the fees for H-1B visa, now there is a demand to abolish it also.
James Fischbach, CEO of investment firm Azoria, has talked about banning Indians from working in America. Instead, he has advocated hiring Americans. Criticizing the H-1B visa, he said that it gives foreign workers an opportunity to deprive Americans of their rights.
Fishback against H-1B visa
James Fischbach had earlier come into limelight in June when he left his job at DOGE during the dispute between Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump. He had said that Musk should apologize to Trump for making baseless allegations and taunts against him. Fischbach has been a longtime critic of the H-1B visa. Ever since Trump increased the fee for H-1B visa to $100,000, James Fischbach has been continuously criticizing it in interviews.
What is H-1B visa?
Let us tell you that H-1B visa legally allows foreign workers to live and work in America. This is an immigration program, under which American companies can hire foreign workers. It is first issued for three years and can then be extended up to six years. Through this, foreign employees can work in various fields like IT, engineering, medicine etc. in America. The highest number of H-1B visa holders, 71–73 percent, are Indians. After this, China is at second place. More than 2 lakh Indians will get H-1B in 2024 alone.
CEO scolds American companies
American CEO reprimanded all the companies employing Indians. He says that American companies claim that they do not have Americans to fill the jobs, so they hire foreigners using H-1B visas. First of all, Indians should be stopped from being hired and our own people should be hired in their place.
Through a post on X, he said, the H-1B scam is hurting Americans, especially in Florida. If companies want to hire skilled workers, they will first have to stop bringing Indians here. They can hire graduate students from universities like FSU, UF, FAU, and UCF. These students are excellent and they also love their country.
Fischbach also says that American workers are more capable than Indians. He says, “Indians and Chinese think that they are better, but then they are exploited, so I have no sympathy for them, because they treat us like slaves in our own country.”
