The US government has said it will fight lawsuits aimed at blocking the $100,000 fee imposed on new HL-IB visa petitions, asserting that “for far too long” the system was “spammed with fraud” and must be overhauled to prioritise American workers.

The remarks made by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Thursday came days after the US Chamber of Commerce filed a lawsuit against the move, describing it as “misguided policy” and “plainly unlawful” action that could cripple American innovation and competitiveness.
