The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Department of Labor announced more immigration changes on Tuesday, increasing the difficulty of skilled foreign workers to acquire H-1B visas.

“We have entered an era in which economic security is an integral part of homeland security. Put simply, economic security is homeland security,” acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf said in a statement. “In response, we must do everything we can within the bounds of the law to make sure the American worker is put first.”
