The US government has barred Microsoft, Adobe, and several other major IT firms from the green card program for skilled foreign workers. The move restricts these companies from sponsoring foreign employees for permanent residency, a significant shift for the tech industry, which relies heavily on skilled immigrant labor. The report was published by TechCrunch.
Why now: The policy directly affects major tech employers and thousands of skilled foreign workers awaiting green cards.
