I voted for Trump in 2016 specifically because of this issue, and am glad to see he is following through on yet another one of his promises. H1B sounds good in theory, and I'll admit is a valid system for a small percentage of talented employees and companies working on hard problems. OTOH, big business and the body shops have ruined it for the rest of us. If there is indeed a talent shortage, the most short-sighted thing you could do as a nation is to import foreigners, depress wages, and make the industry as unattractive as possible for current students. BTW, I've worked in India and seen how the game is played both here and there, so I'm not just the typical xenophobe who's crying about Der took er jerbs (as if that wasn't a valid thing to be angry about). But I know that people from any other country would NOT tolerate training foreign workers from lower-COL nations as replacements for their own job, and Americans now need to push back, too. Enough is enough.
