The H-1B and L-1 Visa Reform Act of 2025 aims to enhance the integrity and oversight of the H-1B and L-1 visa programs, which allow U.S. employers to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations. The legislation seeks to reduce fraud and abuse, ensuring that these programs are used appropriately and that American workers are not displaced by foreign labor. Key provisions include stricter application requirements for employers, who must now demonstrate they are offering competitive wages based on local standards and maintain working conditions that do not negatively impact U.S. workers.
