The U.S. Department of Labor under the Trump administration released a video alleging large-scale misuse of H-1B visas, portraying foreign workers as “stealing the American dream.” The video prominently displays data showing India accounting for 72% of all H-1B visa holders, framing it as a key part of the issue. It also promotes “Project Firewall,” an initiative to investigate and penalize companies misusing work visas. The video has sparked strong reactions in India, with critics calling it politically motivated and harmful to skilled Indian professionals working legally in the U.S. (PC: AFP)
