H-1B Crisis: Indians Living in Fear in the US

Indian workers are living in fear as Donald Trump is set to officially return to the White House next week. From stricter H-1B visa policies to losing jobs in US tech giants, the future remains uncertain for the community.

Thousands of Indians have spent years building their careers and settling in the US with their families, only to become victims of divisive politics once again. A young NRI professional shared his feelings to the media, worrying about the increasing hostility towards Indians.

While the Indian community reaps the benefits of the “American Dream,” their immense contribution to the US economy and society can’t be ignored. Yet, endless delays and 30-year waits for green cards have left many of them in limbo.

For Indian techies, it is not just a minor change in visa policies but their families, careers, and livelihoods are at stake. Samaira, a cybersecurity consultant, told the media that her company had promised quick H-1B sponsorship, but now they’re waiting for “clarity” on Trump’s proposed reforms.

Trump and his supporters have openly targeted immigrant communities in their campaign which has led to racist attacks on the Indian diaspora as well. Thus, the larger question is even if Indians keep their jobs in the US, what kind of society would they be part of?
