Protocol, June 23, 2020
By David Pierce
As expected, President Trump put out an order yesterday suspending new green cards, H-1B and other visas through at least the end of 2020. The order expands the ban Trump put into place earlier this year — and applies only to those not already living and working in the US Still unclear: what it'll mean for anyone renewing their visa in the next six months.
Tech leaders railed against the order, continuing a fight against Trump's immigration crackdowns that they've been waging for years.
