Trump’s $100K H-1B fee: Will it drive foreign teachers out of US classrooms?

President Trump’s proposed $100,000 H-1B visa fee has alarmed US school districts relying on international teachers, especially in STEM and special education. With over 2,300 H-1B educators in 500 districts, the fee could worsen teacher shortages and burden underfunded schools. Lawsuits challenge the policy, citing its threat to educational quality and workforce stability.
