AG Platkin led the filing of a multistate amicus brief today opposing the Trump Administration’s unlawful policy imposing a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa petitions. 
 
“The Trump Administration’s illegal decision to impose an exorbitant fee on those seeking H-1B visas would gravely harm our state. This misguided policy will worsen our existing shortages of teachers, doctors, nurses, and other vital public service employees who work every day to ensure the safety, well-being, and education of our residents. And it would undermine cutting-edge medical and scientific research at our universities. We will all pay the price for this Administration’s extreme ideological opposition to any and all immigration—which is why we are proud to lead a multistate coalition in standing up for the thousands of New Jerseyans who hold H-1B visas.” – AG Platkin
