Vance Accuses Microsoft Of Fraud Over H-1B Workers

The Trump administration is suspending Microsoft from a program that helps H-1B visa workers apply for US green cards, according to Vice President JD Vance.

Trump supporters have long criticized the H-1B program, arguing it can undermine American workers. Microsoft had not immediately responded to the Associated Press.

.@VP: "There has been no company in the United States, unfortunately, that has abused this system more than Microsoft." Microsoft laid off 6,000 American workers in 2025 after certifying that it could not find qualified American employees — yet the company was approved for more than 6,000 H-1Bs and filed 3,682 PERM applications, including nearly 1,000 applications for the same positions as the laid off American workers.
