Vance accuses Microsoft of fraud as Trump administration clamps down on H-1B visa abuse

Vice President JD Vance announced that the Trump administration is suspending Microsoft from the PERM labor certification program. This action prevents the company from transferring employees on temporary H-1B visas to permanent green cards. Vance accused Microsoft of fraud and abuse, noting that the tech giant laid off 6,000 American workers last year. The administration claims Microsoft replaced these domestic employees with foreign workers, utilizing the immigration system to avoid hiring American citizens.
