A federal judge has struck down the $100,000 fee imposed on the entry of new H-1B visa holders, invalidating the September 2026 proclamation that renewed the fee. Commenters note that while litigation is likely to continue, the ruling makes it less likely the Trump administration will be permitted to keep the charge in place.

Why now: The ruling affects thousands of skilled foreign workers and US employers who rely on the H-1B program, making it a closely watched development in the immigration policy fight.
