NINETEEN US STATES have sued the Trump administration over its "unlawful" decision to impose a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa petitions, warning that the move will worsen labour shortages in key sectors such as health care, education and technology.

- PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

New York Attorney General Letitia James, along with 18 other attorneys general, filed the lawsuit in the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts, challenging what they termed a “massive” increase in H-1B fees without legal authority or due process. The H-1B visa programme allows highly skilled foreign professionals to work temporarily in the US and is widely used by Indian nationals.
