The largest recipients of those visas are tech companies and outsourcers bringing in foreigners with high-end computer skills. The new restrictions have been <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2019\/01\/10\/us_visa_restrictions\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">strongly opposed<\/a> by tech giants including Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, Intel, PayPal, and Twitter among dozens of others.<\/p>\n<p>In June, President Trump <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2020\/06\/23\/white_house_visa_entry_freeze\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">signed<\/a> an executive order banning some visa types, including most H-1B applicants, from entering the US, give or take a few caveats.
