US senator floats idea of pausing HI-B visa system
Hindustan Times Delhi
|August 26, 2025
US Republican Senator Mike Lee has floated the possibility of a pause on issuing H1B visas, a large chunk of which is obtained by highly skilled Indian workers.
“Is it time to pause H1B visas?” Lee asked on social media platform X in response to a post that claimed a Walmart executive received kickbacks in order to preferentially hire Indian H1B tech workers over Americans.
Lee is the latest figure in the Republican establishment to wade into the growing debate over H1B visas. First introduced in 1990, H1B visas allow US companies to hire foreign workers who have specialty occupations. The visas are granted for a period of three years and then can be extended to a maximum of six years.
