Business Standard
|October 03, 2025
In email to CEOs, US panel questions their firms’ H-1B visa hiring practices, seeks reply by October 10
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Cognizant have received emails from the United States Senate Committee on Judiciary questioning them on their hiring and layoffs practices in the US. This comes as US President Donald Trump has increased the scrutiny on H-1B visa with an intention of revamping the visa programme.
According to reports the email has been sent to 10 tech firms including Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, TCS, Cognizant, Google, Deloitte and others. The mail was sent by Senator Charles Grassely, chairman, Senate Judiciary Committee and Senator Richard J Durbin.
While Business Standard has seen the email sent to TCS and Cognizant, it could not be independently ascertained if the emails were sent to other firms.
