Tech Giants Back Legal Challenge to Trump’s Foreign Workers Ban
Among those affected by the temporary ban are skilled foreign workers entering on H-1B visas and managers and specialized workers being transferred within a company on L visas – both visa types used by tech companies. Trump’s ban also blocks seasonal workers entering on H-2B visas, with an exception for workers in food supply chain jobs.
In the brief filed on Monday, the companies argue Trump’s proclamation could do irreparable damage to U.S. businesses, workers and the economy, and was based on a “false assumption” that it would protect U.S. workers. “Global competitors in Canada, China, and India, among others, are pouncing at the opportunity to attract well-trained, innovative individuals,” the brief reads. “And American businesses are scrambling to adjust, hiring needed talent to work in locations outside our nation’s borders.” Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, and Twitter were among 52 companies that signed the brief, which was filed in a lawsuit brought by the National Association of Manufacturers, which represents 14,000 member companies, as well as in a similar lawsuit brought in Washington, D.C.Source: https://www.nytimes.com
